VETERANS, current-serving Australian Defence Force personnel and their partners are invited to experience the thrill of off-road racing when the RAEMUS Rover crew hosts a series of wellness days at Willowbank.

Taking place at RAEMUS Park on October 23 and 24, with more sessions on November 14 and 15, the events combine motorsport with an opportunity to meet others who understand military life and the challenges of moving into civilian life.

The RSL RAEMUS Rover Off-Road Racing program engages veterans through a team environment, helping participants find renewed purpose and build the confidence and drive to navigate life beyond their service.

While off-road racing provides the adrenaline, peer-led support is central to the program, bringing participants together through a shared activity and the camaraderie of being part of a crew.

The Willowbank wellness days offer eligible participants an opportunity to meet the team, experience the program and connect with fellow veterans, serving personnel and partners in an informal setting.

Each day will run from 9am to 3pm at RAEMUS Park, Champions Way, Willowbank, with a free barbecue lunch, water and soft drinks provided.

For more information, contact Ian Baker on 0401 393 184, email admin@raemusrover.com.au, visit raemusrover.com.au or follow RSL Raemus Rover Off-Road Racing on Facebook.
