Get your voice heard on ABC’s 7.30 program
If you are going through trying times and would like to share your story, the 7.30 Program (ABC TV) has reached out to OverSixty with a very special invitation.
The program is looking to connect with Australians over the age of sixty in order for you to represent your circumstances and experiences on the show.
Grandparents in particular are of interest to the program producers, especially those who occasionally look after their grandchildren but will be looking after them in a larger capacity if the national directive goes out from Canberra to close schools across the board.
The 7.30 Program is reaching out to the community as much as possible to keep everyone informed. Currently they are producing a story about multi-generational households and looking to hear from people that fit the following criteria:
- Living in multi-generational households, where grandparents, children and grandchildren live together.
- Grandparents who occasionally look after their grandchildren but who may be looking after them increasingly if schools close.
If you or someone you know are in either of these situations and would like to speak to 7.30 and potentially share your story on the program, please contact 7:30 producer Nikki Tugwell via Tugwell.Nikki@abc.net.au
