Join our online family dinner for war widows, defence and veteran families
Cooking together is one of the easiest ways to feel connected, even from far away. Join us online on Thursday 25 June 2026 to prepare a meal alongside other families, swap a few stories over the stove, and sit down to share a meal together.
Veteran family dinner & cooking online
War widows, defence and veteran families are invited to connect through a shared online veteran family dinner, bringing people together to cook, chat, and enjoy a meal from the comfort of home. Participants will receive a Coles gift card and recipe pack to help purchase ingredients. Designed to feed four people (with leftovers for smaller households), this experience offers a simple and meaningful way to build connection and community. Please register once per household.
There is some cost for this activity. You will be posted a recipe pack and gift card to help contribute to the ingredients for the cooking session.
Previous attendees to wellbeing activities said “Thank you for organising the activity, it was a wonderful experience for our family to connect and have fun together.”
