If you would like more information, contact us or fill in a form on the website. The Support Trust wants to understand more about the support you need.

Who we support

The first job is listening well.

The centre works with current and former service people and with the family, friends and whanau around them. Some needs are simple questions. Others need an application, referral, advocate or follow-up call.

  • A current serving NZDF member
  • A veteran or ex-service member of NZDF
  • A veteran or ex-service member of an overseas Defence Force
  • Family, friend or whanau
  • Widow of an ex-service member

If you require urgent support call 027 388 6243
