As we gather to commemorate ANZAC Day (25th April), Lives Lived Well would like to invite local veterans and their families to take part in a wreath-making activity—creating a wreath they can take with them to lay at their local ANZAC Day service, in honour of the service and sacrifice of the ANZACs.

“ANZAC Day is a significant occasion for our nation, commemorating the bravery and commitment of all who have served and those who continue to serve,” stated Lauralie Knight, Centre Manager at the Veterans’ and Families’ Wellbeing Hub.

“We warmly welcome all local current and former ADF members, reservists, their families, and carers to participate in our upcoming free wreath making workshop.”

The wreath making workshop will run from 9am to 11am on Wednesday 23 April at the Veterans’ and Families’ Wellbeing Hub at 12 King Street, Caboolture.

“The wreath workshop participants will make wreaths to lay on ANZAC Day. Since World War I, wreaths have been laid to remember those Australians who died in service during wars, conflicts, and peacekeeping operations,” Lauralie added.

“We want to offer a space for attendees to share their experiences and engage with fellow veterans and their families. We encourage families to participate in this activity to promote a sense of connection and history among younger generations.”

The general public is also encouraged to find their local ANZAC Day service to attend.

The Veterans’ and Families’ Wellbeing Hub is dedicated to supporting veterans and their families, offering a range of social and wellbeing services to enhance their quality of life.

For more information or to RSVP, please email [email protected]. Veterans and their families are also welcome to drop into the Hub anytime during business hours.
