Wounded Heroes has created a lounge for current serving and transitioning members, and their families, of the Australian Defence Force – all ranks and services, including Welfare Staff, Chaplains, Reservists and, of course, Veterans. A combined 17,500 years of lived military experience to share. Wounded Heroes have created a relaxing new space, without alcohol or pokies, to allow veterans and spo
uses to draw on the experience of others who have navigated the challenges of contemporary military life. The Veterans Community Lounge reflects our current objectives to assist our veterans and their families in immediate financial crisis, homeless or at risk of homelessness. We then navigate to the other community services that are readily available, without duplication. In doing so, we continue our 15 year tradition of Compassion, Hope and Purpose. The Wounded Heroes Veterans Lounge will proffer connection to community so that we all may share in the opportunity to pay our respects to our extended Defence Family – on any given day. Facilities: hot and cold drinks (cold coin donation), a kitchen, newspapers, magazines, television, computers, printers and free WIFI. Plenty of free parking available at rear of the building. (The Veterans Community Lounge can be opened up outside of normal opening hours upon prior arrangement for meetings and gatherings of our defence community. Contact us.) Wounded Heroes also has a 24/7 365 days a year crisis support hot line for current and ex-serving members and their families if you every need support on 1300 532 112.
