Special Offer of Aussie Hero Quilts and Laundry Bags to our Defence medics and health professionals

ADF Medic or Defence health professional? Here’s our Special offer to acknowledge your service!

We are going to do something a little different today and have decided that it’s time again to do something a bit special. We currently have an opportunity to add to our list  and around our lovely nation we have amazing volunteers who love to sew for Aussie Heroes.

If you are a serving fulltime or reservist member in a medic or health professional role, or you know someone who is, then here is the deal.

You need to EMAIL (no messages or texts please) on friendsofAHQ@gmail.com with Essential details to include Name, Rank, number of years served, PMKEYS, Postal address and your preferences. Please bear in mind that your quilt will be designed and made by a volunteer and they are limited to what they have access to, especially given the restrictions imposed on us by COVID-19. We cannot guarantee you will receive exactly what you request but they will do their best. 

This offer is open indefinitely and we will advise when it is closed.  We want to allow enough time for all our health / medical personnel to see it and respond.

If you have received a personalised quilt during a previous deployment then you will not be eligible to receive a quilt with this offer however, we are very pleased to offer a new personalised laundry bag to all our medical personnel to convey our current message of thanks for your service in these uncertain times.

We are hopeful that this will give us the chance to recognise some of those who, using their training, wisdom, skill, empathy and patience, are caring for others. This offer is simply our opportunity to recognise the valued contribution of this group of ADF personnel and so they know their service counts as well. We have been creating laundry bags for those on OP Covid Assist duty and now wish to also acknowledge our medics and health professionals involved with the Covid Assist task and for their care and treatment of others at all times.

Lastly, whoever is requesting a quilt will have to cover the cost of postage ($25 for a quilt / $10 for a laundry bag) as we cannot ask the volunteer to cover those costs as well as their time and materials. The funds will need to be deposited into the Aussie Hero Bank Account and a receipt forwarded to Aussie Heroes by email before a quilt /laundry bag is constructed. Bank details etc will be forwarded via email once the request has been received and accepted. 

This offer does not have an end date but we will advise via another post on Facebook when the offer is closed if need be.

Postage contribution must be effected prior to quilt and/or bag being made.

Remember, you need to EMAIL me (no messages or texts please) on friendsofAHQ@gmail.com

Subject must include Attn: Clarissa – ADF Health personnel special offer

We are looking forward to hearing from YOU! #thankyouforyourservice
