Wounded Heroes Australia

On the 26 and 27 April, our very own Senior School, Safety and WellBeing Officer Belinda McLaurin - along with many other legends across Australia and New Zealand - will be pushing themselves through 24 hours of tough workouts. It’s not just about the challenge; it’s for a cause close to our heart.

24 Hours of Heroes honours the sacrifices of veterans, first responders, and their families by raising vital funds for mental health support, rehabilitation, and crisis assistance. Having served in the Navy, Belinda McLaurin understands firsthand how much this support means, as many of us do, that have served or been part of the ADF in a supporting role.

All money raised goes directly to Wounded Heroes Australia, an incredible organisation providing immediate financial and emotional support to veterans and their families in times of crisis.

This challenge will be tough, but it’s nothing compared to what these heroes endure. Every donation, big or small, helps provide life-changing support to those who have given so much.

If you’re able, please donate and help us make a real difference: You can make a donation to 24 Hours of Heroes 2025 online at: https://24hoh2025.raiselysite.com/belinda-mc-laurin

Please support Belinda and her crew as they workout and support one organisation dedicated to helping our veterans and their families.
