- The podcast begins by detailing the reason behind the rebrand and how the organisation will support all family members of veterans who have quietly served behind ADF members.
- Wilson then outlines the history of War Widows NSW and how the newly rebranded Families of Veterans Guild is rising to the challenge to fill the gaps between existing veterans’ organisations, including providing support to family members of veterans who may not meet stringent eligibility criteria of current groups.
