To all of our Police, Emergency Service and Military friends out there. I have shared this before but the raffle will be drawn this Sunday and if your are interested in supporting a truly worthwhile cause you can purchase tickets on the link below.
Hammo (Dean Hamilton) and his wife Gina are champion people. Hammo is a former Australian Army Veteran and NSW Police officer. His program ‘Forge Through’ has done so much to assist veterans and First Responders who have been struggling with the demons of their service it’s about time we give back and assist them in their time of need.
Forge Through is a non profit organisation that has been shaped and honed by first responders and ex military personnel, who have walked the road of service to their country and the aftermath of their service. Forge Through has been designed to fill the void of many contemporary mental health strategies.
The three day program is hosted by Dean and Gina Hamilton at their property situated in a picture-perfect valley near the mighty Clyde river, just 15 minutes from Batemans Bay on the south coast of New South Wales. The program was developed to assist with supporting the journey of veterans and first responders that are, or have suffered from, the demands of their role serving the people of Australia.
Dean and Gina Hamilton are the heart and soul of the Forge Through Foundation, who have supported 100's of veterans and first responders to find their way back to society. With Dean, the Forge Fundraising powerhouse and forge master, currently fighting his own battle with Pancreatic cancer, the Forge through foundation needs assistance to keep the forge fires burning. Four renown Australian Rod Builders have generously given their time to produce a one off custom 4 piece fishing rod with cloth carry case, to be raffled in support of this worthy cause.
