What well attended Anzac Day services we had again across the Narungga electorate.
It is fantastic to, together, honour our past and current service men and women in this way who have served and sacrificed for our country.
I offer a timely reminder to local Veterans organisations which host our valued commemorative events that two funding programs are currently open in support of members' efforts: the Veterans SA Commemorative Services Grant Fund and the Veterans SA Capacity Building Grant Fund (both closing 31 May 2025). For more info visit the Grants tab on this website.
