Welcome

Welcome


The Illawarra Veterans’ Entitlement Service (IVES) was formed to assist free of charge, all veterans who are ex service or still serving in the Australian Defence Force in the Illawarra with their Pension or Disability Claim process. This assistance is also extended to widows and the immediate family.

Our offices are located at:

Street Address Office Phone Number
Warilla RSL Hall
70 Queen Street
(Corner of Queen and Booth Street)
Warilla,
2528
(02) 4297 1987

Our aim at IVES is to make the claim process as pleasant as possible and the Warilla Office staff are always welcoming with offers of a brew and biscuits if ever you visit. 

Our Staff who are volunteers enjoy assisting the veteran fraternity. To this end we also visit other communities to help veterans with their claims and advocacy needs. 
(See the Outreach Advocacy Section under Information for more detail)

Whilst also providing Community of Practice Advocate assistance through collective learning, providing support to one another through mentoring, knowledge-sharing and networking.
(See the Training Advocacy Section under Information for more detail)

We believe that the Warilla Hall is a very unique asset for the Veteran Community and at times it is very busy.  The office has a friendly homely atmosphere and the Hall has lovely surroundings.  We also use the hall to host VVCS courses which are popular.
