We had:

Alf Taylor, Renowned Nyoongar Elder, poet and storyteller talking about the release of his new book God, the Devil and Me. Mr Taylor delves into his past to share a unique and highly entertaining autobiography chronicling his life growing up as a member of the Stolen Generations in the infamous New Norcia Mission, north of Perth.

Kaye Hamilton, Disability Support Provider and Guardian to her 3 sons discussing how COVID leaves Aussies with disabilities stranded from support. Kaye has worked hard managing the challenges of connecting with the NDIS, finding the right services for her boys, and coping through COVID. During a dismantling year of disconnect, a third (34%) of Australians with a disability had their NDIS or other support services cancelled during the pandemic, leaving them isolated and disengaged from their support networks.
