To commemorate the recent passing of Anzac Day, we share the personal narrative of a former Major with the Australian Army, Luke Millwood. Luke has not only completed our veteran rehabilitation program himself, but is now part of the Hope in Health team, helping other ex military personnel successfully rehabilitate.
While Anzac Day is a time to reflect on the past, it should be used as an opportunity to support those who have recently served, or those that are currently serving in the army, airforce and navy. It’s an opportunity for friends and family to check in, acknowledging the present, discussing the past and looking to the future.
