23rd Jul 2024

The Federal Member for New England, Barnaby Joyce, recently received advice that applications by three ex-
service organisations in the New England electorate under the Building Excellence in Support and Training (BEST) grants program have been
approved.
Mr Joyce said the BEST grants, which will assist with the provision of veteran advocacy services, have been awarded to:
• Armidale Legacy ($14,474.29),
• the Tamworth RSL Sub-Branch ($48,839.47), and
• Tamworth Legacy ($26,850.00).
“I congratulate the grant
recipient organisations upon their successful applications and commend them and all ex-service organisations across Australia for the essential
services they provide to veterans and their families,” Mr Joyce said.
Further information about the BEST grants is available at the Department of Veterans’ Affairs website:
