Switch Your Sitch

Heston Russell: The Not For Profit Switch


Listen Later

Today I am extremely honoured to Switch the Sitch with retired special forces Major, Heston Russell.

I first met Heston whilst hosting a regular segment on Bondi Radio, he and his partner had brought the Barry’s Bootcamp franchise to Australia. Two years later I am honoured to have him co-host my podcast as he made the switch to help returned veterans assimilate back into society by starting the Voice of a Veteran Movement.

Heston founded the Voice Of A Veteran movement in September 2020, as a platform for Veterans to speak out and be heard, and to take action to fix the system that should be projecting our patriotic heroes to greatness after service.

He is a fierce advocate for Veterans and doing what is right. Which has led to the launch of the new charity organisation Veteran Support Force in July 2021 - to lead the way in proactive support for our community and engagement with the Royal Commission into Defence and Veteran Suicide

Having experienced those affected by veteran suicide personally this movement is close to my heart and addresses the need for change in society through passionate endeavours.

Join our Facebook Group to chat to Heston or other likeminded community members who are Switching their Sitch,  starting a small business or growing an Empire!
