. @HawthornFC thought their pre-season training would be in Queensland's trademark sun and heat. Instead, the Maroochydore AFL grounds on the Sunshine Coast became waterlogged following heavy rainfall. @7AFL #7News https://t.co/I8DSyhu684

After practising medicine in the demanding environment of a warship at sea, LEUT Holly Murphy from Wooroolin could have been forgiven for requesting a quiet shore posting. Instead she deployed to Kabul, Afghanistan. Thank you for your service, Holly. #YourADF #TYFYS @DeptDefence https://t.co/iOHcbgSo1m

The Council for Women and Families United by Defence Service will provide a forum for women and families to have a direct voice to Government on issues for Defence Members and families.
Our Government is committed to putting veterans and their families first and it is important that we know what impact defence service has on these groups and they are represented by a united voice.
Service within the Australian Defence Force (ADF) has impacts beyond the serving member and families are the primary support network for members through their ADF service and beyond.
The Council will comprise representatives from across Australia, and reflect the broadest definition of ‘family’. Mrs Rhondda Vanzella OAM, current President of the NSW War Widows’ Guild will act as interim chair, while the council is established. Mrs Vanzella will be joined by a broad range of members including female veterans, partners, mothers, extended family, and widows. It will include Gwen Cherne, a widow and also a member of the NSW War Widows’ Guild.
The Council will work closely with other stakeholders, from ex-service organisations to individuals with an interest in the matters it is advocating for, and then to advise the Government.
The first meeting of the Council will take place in early 2019. Full membership details are being finalised.
