Our People

Our staff are here for the Defence community.

We are a diverse and professional team, ready to support you. 

Service-related injuries come in many forms and our team is here to help you. Our Liaison Officers will connect you with the right services and organise social activities, while our psychologists, exercise physiologists, physiotherapists, counsellors and social workers provide tailored, expert support for you and your family. Our head-office staff, centre managers and administration staff are also here to support you.  

Our staff have a strong Defence connection, with many serving in the Army, Navy and Airforce. We understand what it means to be in the Defence community. It’s that understanding that inspires us to do what we do and ensure that everyone has hope for recovery.
