Amber Community (formerly Road Trauma Support Services Victoria) warmly invites you to our Time for Remembering ceremony.

Time for Remembering is an occasion to come together to commemorate loved ones lost and injured on our roads and pay tribute to all who work tirelessly to make our roads safer.

"Time for Remembering gives the community a safe space to come together to honour loved ones and connect with others who have been impacted by road trauma."

- Bernadette Nugent, CEO

History of the event

Time for Remembering has been held at Parliament House on the third Sunday in November, the World Day of Remembrance for Road Trauma Victims, since 2001.

Jeanette Suhr lost her 19-year-old daughter Tanya to a road crash in December 1991, a trauma that still impacts her every day. In her story below, Jeanette talks about how vital our Time for Remembering ceremony is for her. Thank you to Victoria Police for allowing us to share this video.
