Special Needs Assistance

Special Needs Assistance
Limited special needs assistance will be available for people who are unable to walk from the coach passenger set down point to the commemorative sites. People requiring special needs assistance can obtain further information about the special needs application and assessment process from the Department of Veterans' Affairs by e-mailing [email protected], or telephoning (02) 6289 6717. You can also write to:

Director

GPO Box 9998
CANBERRA ACT 2601

Please make contact well ahead of Anzac Day. You will need to provide information in relation to medical conditions to receive special needs assistance.

Be Prepared:
People with special needs are asked to ensure they are prepared to spend a night out in the cold and bring warm clothing, coat, gloves, hat, scarf and a blanket as a minimum. There is no access to coaches after arrival, so everything you need during the evening and next day must be brought with you including medications. Please see Packing.
