25.01.2022 An insightful demonstation of how indisious and often unrecognised by society relationship abuse and stalking can be. Did you know that in Queensland, stalking ...is a criminal offence? If you are being stalked by an ex-partner seek support - BDVS 3217 2544 Who’s the one that got away for you? That’s the question asked in a new PSA to three men. Instantly, each man remembered the one that got away and all three began reminiscing. While it sounds like three broken-hearted men, this PSA is about a much darker side of love and relationships. The haunting video slowly shows how possessiveness can actually be a subtle sign of abuse. http://www.huffingtonpost.com.au//chilling-psa-features-me

13.01.2022 Senior's Week starts on Saturday the 18th of August. The week, which is organised by COTA Queensland, celebrates the contributions of older people, and encourages them to engage with each other through events and forums. It also aims to get people of all ages working together to create age-friendly communities. All this helps to break down the stereotypes around ageing, and reduces social isolation.... Relationships Australia Queensland has a key role to play in creating those age-friendly communities, through the provision of services that improve relationships and help reduce or prevent elder abuse.
