6 ANZAC DAY RACE DAY At Watsonia RSL, community is more than a word – it’s the heart of everything they do. From assisting veterans with housing and health support to connecting servicemen and women with a sense of belonging, the Sub-Branch plays a quiet but powerful role. This Anzac Day, their work will again be in the spotlight thanks to a continuing partnership with the Victoria Racing Club, which generously supports Watsonia RSL’s fundraising for the Anzac Appeal. “The VRC has given us an amazing opportunity,” says Anna Dalakis, Veteran and Community Support/Appeals Coordinator at Watsonia RSL. “They’ve always been so supportive. We’re able to sell badges and pins on course on Anzac Day and Remembrance Day, and we often send a group of volunteers who get to enjoy a day at Flemington in return.” By Celia Purdey THE AND THE POWER OF COMMUNITY ANZAC APPEAL
