Message from Nick Wakeling, MP for Ferntree Gully

Melbourne Legacy is a charity that supports more than 4,700 people from families touched by a loved one’s service to Australia.

Their services include relief from financial hardship, advice and referrals to support services such as counselling, assistance with children’s education and development, encouraging like-minded friendships, and advocating for entitlements and services.

That’s why I’m delighted to show my support for the amazing work that Melbourne Legacy does by participating in the first-ever Legacy Bear Hunt. You can participate too by placing a Legacy bear in your window, with all proceeds from the sale of Legacy bears going  towards helping families of veterans.

Three Legacy bears are available: Navy sailor ‘Salty’, Army soldier ‘Banjo’ and Air Force airman ‘Jett’.
