BOOTSTRAPS is a meeting place for current and ex service men and women with mental and physical injuries sustained from service, to gather in a friendly atmosphere to create hand crafted leather projects whilst associating with like-minded people. We have created a social atmosphere where veterans of all ages can participate in hands-on activities, whilst reconnecting with family members and the community.
BOOTSTRAPS conducts beginners, intermediate and advanced courses to enable its participants to experience creating a wide range of leather projects. BOOTSTRAPS members are able to associate with other members of the Veterans community and share information on services available that will lead to an improvement in their physical and mental well-being. Our current location is far to inadequate for the numbers and needs of our growing community.
BOOTSTRAPS is requesting financial assistance in order to help refurbish a venue that will become our permanent home, run leather craft workshops, and create a drop in centre for anyone in need. These funds will allow us to conduct electrical, painting, restoration and security works to our proposed property; whilst also allowing us to open our doors all week for our veteran community.
It cannot be understated the need to provide our service men and women any and all avenues to aid in their recovery and prevent suicides amongst our ADF personnel. It is our firm belief here at BOOTSTRAPS that we will provide such an initiative that will greatly assist our veterans and their families now and well into the future.
