Without the creation of the NHS at that time I wonder what would have happened to the continuing care our WW2 wounded would have needed in the years after 1945?

Check the opening credits of Wendy Craig's 1981 series "Nanny". That was set between the wars and the credit sequence shows typical people from the period. A few nannies pushing prams, but also a few ex-soldiers, some with limbs missing, begging in the streets.
