Issue 14 - Monday 13 April 2026

Soldier On was established in 2012 by John Bale, Dr Danielle Clout and Cavin Wilson, following the death of a friend on deployment in Afghanistan. The aim of this not-for-profit organisation is to support Defence personnel injured physically or psychologically in the line of duty.

In just a decade, Soldier On has significantly expanded its programs, services and advocacy work to become a lifeline for current and former members of the Australian Defence Force (ADF) and their families.

Our fully integrated support services enable Defence families to build social connections, rewarding careers and mental and physical resilience after a military career ends.

More than 9,000 Australians currently benefit from their evidence based, trauma informed care, designed in consultation with Defence personnel, veterans and their families.

Their holistic approach allows them to do everything from helping jobseekers write a CV and connect them with one of the more than 200 leading Australian businesses who have committed to The Pledge Employment Program, to enhance their skills with education and training.

Their calendar of free community, social and sporting activities builds enduring social connections, while their psychological services deliver critical support for those struggling to see a way forward.

Soldier On’s deep insights into the challenges facing the Defence community, and how best to overcome them, are grounded in their people – many of them are veterans themselves, or partners and family members of past and current ADF personnel.
