IGY6 CIRCLE

    Connection. Conversation. Camaraderie.

    IGY6 Circle is an online group for men and women veterans and first responders who are looking to reconnect with others and with themselves.

    Delivered via Zoom, this is a relaxed and informal space where participants can join from anywhere in Australia and connect with people who understand life during and after service.

    There is no pressure or expectations, just a safe and supportive place to show up as you are.

      • First responders (police, ambulance, fire, SES and
        frontline roles)
