Dear members.
Reminder about tomorrow’s Invisible Injuries premiere at LEEDERVILLE.
Sunday 6th September 2026 at 4pm.

Learn about JCRSL member Andy Fermo story.

Invisible Injuries, an Australian feature documentary, has been officially selected for CinefestOZ 2026 and will celebrate its World Premiere this September.
We'd love to have you join us as we celebrate this milestone and share the film with the wider community.
Invisible Injuries explores the unseen impact of military service through the stories of veterans, families, psychologists and military leaders. It is a film about trauma, resilience, recovery and the importance of understanding the invisible wounds of service.
We'd love to invite you, your team and your broader community to attend one of these special screenings.
Tickets can be purchased directly through the links below.
If you feel the documentary would resonate with your community, we'd be incredibly grateful if you would consider sharing these screenings through your communication channels. Your support will help us reach veterans, Defence families, first responders and members of the wider community who may benefit from seeing this important Australian story and the conversations it inspires.

Our Secretary, Helen, was invited to attend a luncheon at ANZAC House Perth, where she had the opportunity to meet with Len Russell, Chief Executive Officer of the Australian Veterans Children Assistance Trust (AVCAT) and see how the students we proudly sponsor are progressing with their studies. It was a wonderful opportunity to learn more about their achievements and the positive impact our sponsorship is having on their education and future goals..
On behalf of Joondalup City RSL Sub-Branch, I would like to say how honored we are to support these outstanding young people. Seeing them develop their skills, confidence, discipline, and commitment is truly rewarding.
The values they are learning today—leadership, teamwork, resilience, respect, and service—are qualities that have been upheld by generations of Australian servicemen and women. By investing in our youth, we are helping to build a stronger future for our community and our nation.

Thanks to our RSL Social member, Tricia Green for organising our Volunteers Lunch, held at Eight Slices Restaurant. It was a wonderful opportunity to celebrate and thank our members for everything they have contributed throughout the year.
It was a great way to come together, enjoy a beautiful lunch and take some time away from our usual activities to relax and socialise. The lunch provided an opportunity to share stories, have a few laughs, and get to know one another better. Events like this remind us that volunteering is not only about the work we do for others, but also about the friendships, connections and sense of community we build along the way. It was wonderful to see everyone enjoying each other’s company and celebrate the important contribution our volunteers make.
