The prime has agreed to sponsor a series of events hosted by the veterans’ charity in recognition of the service of ADF personnel.

Lockheed Martin Australia has announced a sponsorship partnership with Legacy Australia in support of its centennial commemorations in 2023.

The sponsorship includes support for Centenary Community Days to be held across the country as part of the Legacy Centenary Torch Relay, presented by Defence Health.

The relay is set to commence in Pozieres, France on Anzac Day 2023, beginning a 55,000-kilometre journey to London, Perth and across Australia before concluding at the Melbourne Shrine of Remembrance on 13 October 2023.

Lockheed Martin Australia chief executive Warren McDonald AO CSC welcomed the opportunity to support Legacy’s centenary events.

“We look forward to continuing to play a part in supporting the important and enduring work of Legacy in honouring their promise to protect the partners and children of veterans who gave their lives or health in recognised military service,” he said.

“Our contribution and proud involvement with the Centenary Community Days will assist in continuing Legacy’s important work supporting veterans’ families in communities throughout Australia.

“At Lockheed Martin Australia we remain deeply committed to the well-being of our military community. This commitment is shared by many of our employees who regularly take part in volunteer networking opportunities to support community events such as this throughout the year,” he said.

Eric Easterbrook OAM, chairman, Legacy Australia, added: “It’s great to have Lockheed Martin on board for the Legacy Centenary Torch Relay 2023 as one of our corporate partners. 

“The Legacy Centenary Community Days will be another great addition to the relay event for families and their children during this historic year.”
