Tune in at 8:40am tomorrow morning🎙️❤️

Looking forward to chatting with Mim on the Breakfast Show with some updates on the 1000 Rural Women Survey research project in the lead up to 🎥

RRR women have you completed the survey? We want to add your collective voice to this story! Link in bio. 🌱

16/08/2024

Our North Queensland RRR women are jumping on board.🌱

As of yesterday we have had 537 respondents and the statistics and stories are speaking. ✅

To reach over 1000 women Australia wide means our research and this survey will be the broadest and largest of its kind. But it’s not about numbers or ownership. It’s about OUTCOME! With these numbers we have a greater chance of addressing policy whilst representing voices from all walks of life.

If you are a regional, rural or remote woman and have 15mins, please add your voice to the collective story.

Thank you to the 750 women and allies who watched the premiere of Jackson’s Track at the Women in Gippsland and Baw Baw Shire Council International Women’s Day event.

So humbled to walk along side our Indigenous elders. Although there is such a long way to go in this fight, it was encouraging to learn how many in this particular audience share a heart to see change.

Jackson’s Track is a short exposé on the Kurnai Elders' experience of the healthcare system in Gippsland during the stolen generation, featuring Cheryl Drayton & Linda Mullet. Shot in half a day in between lockdowns during the pandemic, this is a small film with a big heart.

🎥 Watch doco here: https://www.cheekymac.com/jacksons-track

… and join the fight in shifting mindsets across Gippsland in advocacy for our First Nation Gippslandians and beyond.
