Legacy in the Park - International Women’s Day

Those looking for an inspirational celebration of female empowerment this International Women’s Day should look no further than Legacy in the Park International Women’s Day. Hosted at the historic and picturesque ANZAC Memorial in Hyde Park on the 8th of March, guests can mingle with some of Australia’s most inspiring women over complimentary beer, wine and champagne and canapes to celebrate the achievements of the incredible women within the Australian Defence Force and look to #breakthebias.

Sydney Legacy’s special event will also feature Defence Ambassador for the Australian Capital Territory, Brigadier Alison Creagh AM CSC (Ret’d), as the keynote speaker. Alison retired from the Australian Army in March 2015, following 30 years of dedicated service, and now focuses on supporting veterans, defence industry and promoting cybersecurity through a number of board positions. Alison will be sharing her incredible personal and professional stories as well as hosting a Q&A session.

Much of her work is similar to the wonderful work Sydney Legacy does to support families of Australian service women and men. Sydney Legacy was formed in 1926 and has for more than 90 years, ‘kept the promise’ to care for our veteran’s families. Offering support in the form of income support, school-aged education support, as well as a community for the families of our veterans. Proceeds from the Legacy in the Park International Women’s Day event will go towards funding this continued support.
