Legacy Week
Sunday 31 August - Saturday 6 September
Legacy Week appeal has been running since the 1940’s and is a time to show support to the widows and children whose loved ones have served our country. Legacy badges are a special emblem of support, symbolising mateship, compassion and fairness. Funds raised from purchases of badges during Legacy Week make a big impact in the lives of veterans’ families.
