It confirmed the Invictus Australia acknowledges the Minister and Government for recognising the critical importance of their world-leading work, to sustain investment in evidence-backed initiatives that strengthen the health and wellbeing of veterans and their families, which address many of the recommendations from the Royal Commission into Defence & Veteran Suicide.

The charity announced it on X, formerly Twitter handle.

It said, “We welcome the Government’s decision to reinstate our funding to deliver sporting programs for veterans and their families.”

“This outcome reflects a commitment to the importance of connection, recovery and wellbeing for those who have served.”

Reacting to it, the IGF CEO Rob Owen says, "Fantastic news on the decision to renew federal funding for Invictus Australia given the proven impact that sport and community have on veteran recovery, rehabilitation and suicide prevention.”

Rob added, “We are delighted to see continued government support in Australia for this work."
