PRODUCED with support from Volunteering Queensland, you can find the Fraser Coast Volunteer Heroes Storybook on the Hervey Bay Neighbourhood website at www.hbnc.com.au This collection of stories showcases the countless different ways volunteers make our community stronger and more connected. It is an amazing read.

Amassing 182 pages, it weaves the tapestry of those who give so selflessly to our local sporting groups, charity groups, community and not-forprofit organisations.

I would encourage you to take a look at it.

The Fraser Coast Volunteer Heroes Storybook symbolises everything that is pure and joyous about our region.

Volunteers play a crucial role in the fabric of our

LETTERSTOTHEEDITOR Prioritising greed

I agree whole heartedly with Syl Mod regarding the proposed development.

I do not believe it’s necessary or wanted. Same goes for all the development around town.

Council have ruined Hervey Bay. Our hospital system is a nightmare.

The town has just turned into a money making racket and all I see is greed, not the beautiful seaside town, it once was. Prioritise the needs of the area, well said Syl.

Noelenne Frazer

So many questions In response to the letter from

Syl Mod about the emergency department at Hervey Bay Hospital.

Everyone says this is not under Council control but Government.

The numbers allowed to move to Hervey Bay when there is not the infrastructure to accommodate them is under their control.

Yes, the more buildings they allow mean more rates for the Council, but at what cost to the residents already living here?

Millionaires Playground, another letter in your paper, also stated all the things that are wrong with this continued development.

So many unanswered

community, offering their time and skills selflessly to support various causes.

Their contributions are invaluable, as they provide essential services that might otherwise be unavailable due to budget constraints.

This selflessness not only benefits the community but also provides volunteers with a profound sense of purpose and fulfillment.

Engaging in volunteer work allows individuals to connect with others, share common goals, and experience the joy of making a tangible difference.

The economic impact of volunteers on the Fraser Coast is substantial.

By providing unpaid services, volunteers help organisations allocate resources more effectively, ensuring that funds can be directed towards critical needs and improvements.

This can include everything from organising community events, assisting in educational programs, to supporting healthcare initiatives.

Without volunteers, many of these programs would face significant challenges, reducing the overall quality of life within the community.

Moreover, the presence of volunteers generates a ripple effect of positivity and goodwill.

The uplifting value they bring can be seen in the increased morale of those they assist and the enhanced sense of community among residents.

They inspire others to contribute, creating a culture of giving and support that strengthens communal bonds.

It was a pleasure to read through the Fraser Coast Volunteer Heroes Storybook and I am in awe of the contributions made by these amazing locals.

questions from developers and the Council.

The developers and others say what a wonderful thing this is going to be when finished but no mention of at what cost while being built.

The impact it will have on residents living nearby, and nearby businesses affected by the noise from the building site.

Where are all the workers going to live or park because many will be brought in for this construction?

What environmental issues will arise from going underground for the four levels of carparks and the high rises towering over the tree line affect our sea life.

Also, in Council flood maps this development has three different levels of flooding over the area involved where will all the water go and can our drains cope with it?

So far all unanswered by Council and developers.

Thank you Cancer Care Service

The 20th of May each year is International Clinical Trials Day, and I would like to say thanks to the staff at Cancer Care Service - Hervey Bay, for their ongoing commitment to improving treatments and outcomes for people diagnosed with breast cancer,

through their participation in the Breast Cancer Trials research program.

More than 20,000 women will be diagnosed with breast cancer across Australia this year alone. That is 54 women per day.

But while we still have a long way to go before we have a cure for every person, more women are surviving this disease than ever before.

Over the past three decades survival rates for breast cancer have increased by more than 30% and clinical trials research has made a significant contribution to this.

My team and I at Breast Cancer Trials would like to extend our deepest thanks.

We would not have been able to achieve what we have without you, and we look forward to what will be achieved together in the years to come.

Soozy J Smith PhD, Breast Cancer Trials

Useless holiday

You are right, it’s useless holiday (Fraser Coast Show Holiday sic).

I would rather work; it costs too much money.

I have a business in Hervey Bay and it costs far too much to be closed on a Friday.

Thanks for mentioning it.

LETTERSTOTHEEDITOR Build it in Bargara

The demographer on the TV news this week has no idea how a country kids thinks.

Yet Glenn Winney agreed with him saying we need to keep the young here when finishing school.

Most kids just want to get away go to the city after growing up in small towns as happened years ago.

That means further training university nursing jobs. Many love that lifestyle but when married and children often return in their 30s.

Hervey Bay is a retirement town and the jobs created around us are for that younger generation mostly providing enormous opportunities for them and after the razzle dazzle frustrating travel times it’s bliss in the country.

You’re home in the summer evenings and can be on the beach or your favourite sport in minutes.

The singles will travel for entertainment or weekends easily as they have the money.

Trying to open night clubs etc is a very expensive business and has been tried numerous times in the past.

The bay is not ever going to be like Surfers; it’s a family type beach drawing tourists who are escaping their normal lives.

Mr Cuda and his developer friends should read this week’s

news re Bargara attracting rich Sydneysiders and going to be the new Noosa and build his monstrosity there.

They love the surf beaches simple as that.

J. French- Pt Vernon

Can you hear the kookaburras?

In the last issue, the editor asks whether the “economic impact” is enough of a case to abolish the FC Show holiday because so many locals leave town and don’t spend their money here. (Gee, wonder why these pesky locals aren’t hanging around.)

A few pages later a “puff piece”, written, of course, by the developer, claims that the proposed Esplanade resort “has a plan to showcase environmental excellence” (which reads like a typical “green wash”) and attract “high spending tourists,” while also claiming, remarkably, that this development will help “ease pressure on the Hervey Bay housing market,” which is not explained.

(Gee, will it also reduce congestion and youth crime and cure haemorrhoids?

Surely these new high wealth folks will make up for the locals getting out of town on a long weekend, won’t they?)

Their proposed measures will not prevent or fix the potential (probable) damage

f as outlined in the article a few weeks ago laying out the science behind the projected damage, but hey, we’ll get some cool lighting.

So, it seems that all this new development, including the proposed Esplanade Eyesore, is not enough after all, because our local economy, according to the editor, is not robust enough to allow for HB locals to get out of town when one of the few local attractions—and a couple of days off—are scheduled.

And the implication of “needing” this new development to attract wealthy tourists must be because the current “low wealth” tourists are simply not spending enough here, which is why locals should be staying here when an event is going on.

So, we have an affordability crisis and environmental impact that will be helped by building a high-rise luxury resort, and our fragile economy here in the Bay that will be fixed if locals don’t go elsewhere during Show Weekend. Hmmmm.

Does something smell fishy here? These specious appeals to false economics reveals the true rationale for unchecked growth that’s ruining this town: greed. Can you hear the kookaburras?

FRASER Coast residents looking to dive into a career with Council are encouraged to attend a ‘Try And Apply Day’ at the Hervey Bay or Maryborough Aquatic Centre next week.

Fraser Coast Regional Council Director Strategy, Development and Community Gerard Carlyon said this was a great opportunity for residents to talk to staff about all the career opportunities currently available at our aquatic centres.

“We are looking for fit and motivated people who can gain

valuable lifeguarding, CPR and first aid qualifications to benefit you beyond the poolside.

“You don’t have to be young, athletic, or an advanced swimmer to be a lifeguard.Our lifeguards span from teenagers to over 60 years old. The hours are flexible and it’s a great way to earn some extra cash.

“Your journey at the Aquatic Centre doesn’t have to end with lifeguarding. You’ll have opportunities for career growth and to advance through various roles within the Aquatic Centre team and beyond.

“If you’re looking for flexible and rewarding employment, come to one of our ‘Try And Apply Days’ to find out more or apply online today.”

“These information sessions

will provide a valuable opportunity to tour our facilities, talk to current staff and learn more about the jobs available,” Mr Carlyon said.

“Potential candidates will be able to book an interview from a list of available dates and receive information about upcoming Lifeguard, First Aid and CPR Training courses.”

Exhibitions explore three decades of Asian Pacific art

TWO exhibitions showcasing Asian Pacific contemporary art and a local artist’s first solo exhibition exploring her connection to country have opened at the Hervey Bay Regional Gallery.

Fraser Coast Regional Councillor Sara Diana Faraj said ‘Asia Pacific Contemporary: Three Decades of APT’ was a touring exhibition from the Queensland Gallery/Gallery of Modern Art’s (QAGOMA) collection featuring 45 artworks by 25 artists from 13 Asian Pacific countries.

“The exhibition includes an exciting selection of contemporary works by internationally recognised artists from the Asia Pacific region across various forms such as painting, sculpture, works on paper, video and performance,” she said.

“It is a celebration of diverse works featured in Asia Pacific Triennial exhibitions since the 1990s and embraces contemporary art in all its forms, ranging from the ceremonial to the conceptual, and from the deeply personal to the resolutely social.

“This exhibition will be accompanied by another QAGOMA touring exhibition,

Sarah Thomson, Cr Sara Faraj and Matilda Davis Asia Pacific Video, which features a selection of video artworks highlighting artists experimenting with video as an art form, capturing bodily actions and performative practices.”

Hervey Bay Regional Gallery Director Sarah Thomson said Matilda Davis: The White Man’s Web was Davis’ first solo exhibition where she explores her Aboriginal ancestry and connection to country.

“This exhibition will challenge you to think about our impact on delicate coastal ecosystems by using found natural materials and waste found discarded on our beaches and wetlands,” Ms

Thomson said.

“Matilda Davis is a young creative artist from Maryborough who will highlight this important issue through an immersive and evocative installation.”

The White Man’s Web and Asia Pacific Video are on display until 30 June 2024 while Asia Pacific Contemporary: Three Decades of APT will be on display until 14 July 2024.

The Hervey Bay Regional Gallery is free to attend and is located at 166 Old Maryborough Road, Pialba.

WetSide boardwalk F R E E Q U O T E S demolition begins We fit new roofs & fix old ones!

Let us quote on your new roof

New Colorbond roofs

20 years industry experience 100% locally owned family company DEMOLITION of the damaged boardwalk overlooking the ocean at WetSide has now begun.

Fraser Coast Regional Council Director of Strategy, Community, and Development Gerard Carlyon said the boardwalk was deemed unsafe due to erosion caused by big seas and storms over the last ten years.

“WetSide is a much-loved, award-winning water park where people can come together to beat the heat and have fun on the waterslides, splash around in the water play area, and test their skills on the Aqua Ninja course, the first of its kind in Australia,” he said.

“That’s why we must ensure this important community facility is safe now and into the future.

“Unfortunately, erosion has exposed the foundations for the boardwalk.

“As the boardwalk is located within a coastal management area and part of it is below the high tide, Council has worked with the Queensland Government to obtain the necessary approvals to demolish it safely.

“This will include removing 36 pylons below the high tide along with the substructure and decking attached to pylons above the high tide.

“The works are occurring

now during WetSide’s winter shutdown to minimise disruption to staff and the community.

“In addition to the boardwalk removal, electrical and other maintenance works will be carried out in the TotSide section of the facility to ensure all of WetSide is ready to go when it reopens in midSeptember for the 2024/25 season.”

Mr Carlyon said no final decisions had been made on the long-term future of the boardwalk area, with the immediate focus on carrying out the works to ensure its safety.

Proudly sponsored by

Depth and inspiration at Gatakers Artspace IMAGINATIVE threedimensional artwork and uplifting pieces developed by local high school students celebrating our present selves and our aspirations showcasing at Gatakers Artspace in Maryborough.

Fraser Coast Mayor George Seymour encouraged local residents and visitors to explore the two new free exhibitions.

He said the exhibitions shone a light on our creative high school students and allowed emerging artists to display their artwork in a professional gallery space.

“Selfsameness is a collaborative art exhibition that brings together the creative talents from Maryborough high schools including Maryborough and Aldridge SHS, Riverside Christian College, and St Mary’s Catholic College.

Students explored themes of consistency, identity, and staying true to oneself, resulting in a vibrant blend of diverse perspectives and shared experiences about who we are and who we aspire to become, said Cr Seymour.

Each school submited around 20 artworks, showcasing various styles encompassing 2D, 3D, and

time-based art.

Cr Seymour said the second exhibition, Radiant Objects, features twelve established artists and nine emerging artists, displaying over 30 artworks using a range of traditional and non-traditional materials including wool felt, macrame, clay, shells and feathers.

“The appeal of 3D art lies in its ability to transcend traditional boundaries, offering viewers a tactile and immersive experience that brings artwork to life in three-dimensional space,” he said.

Cr Seymour said they were

committed to providing ongoing support to local artists, who played a crucial role in fostering creativity and enriching cultural experiences in our region.

Both exhibitions run daily until 9th June 2024. Entry is free.

Gatakers Artspace is located at 311 Kent Street in Maryborough and is open 9:30am to 3:30pm Tuesdays to Fridays and 9:30am to 2pm weekends including public holidays.

Torquay Drs and Craignish Drs, national recognition TORQUAY Doctors and Craignish Doctors recently increased their community health credentials by earning national re-accreditation awards, affirming their dedication to quality and safety in practice.

Recognised by the Australian General Practice Accreditation Limited (AGPAL), a leading not-for-profit provider of general practice accreditation services in Australia, this achievement underscores their ongoing commitment to excellence.

Dr. Richard Choong, AGPAL Chair, emphasised the significance of accreditation as a testament to the practices' investment in quality across all facets of their operations.

Accreditation reflects a proactive stance towards enhancing patient care, indicating a commitment to continuous improvement.

“Achieving accreditation is a major achievement for any practice and a clear demonstration that Torquay Doctors and Craignish Doctors is striving to improve their level of care to both patients and the community,” he said.

“Practices seek accreditation because they want to do their best and view this as another

Great deals on tyres for all vehicles.

Practice Development Manager, Melissa Becker. Medical receptionists, Tamara Brighton, Phoebe Clarke step towards excellence in patient care.”

Over a 12-month period, the practice teams diligently implement the Royal Australian College of General Practitioners (RACGP) Standards, serving as a national benchmark for quality care and risk management.

This rigorous process, jointly developed by AGPAL and key healthcare organizations like the Australian Medical Association (AMA), ensures adherence to stringent criteria.

During on-site assessments, various aspects are evaluated, including vaccine management, equipment sterilization, staff training, and emergency preparedness. Dr. Choong stressed the importance of teamwork in achieving accreditation, fostering a sense of pride among staff members.

Torquay Doctors and Craignish Doctors proudly display the AGPAL accreditation symbol, signifying their commitment to patient well-being. By choosing an AGPAL-accredited practice, patients nationwide can trust they will receive care that meets the highest standards.

Offering a comprehensive range of primary healthcare services from birth to palliative care, the practices cover women's, men's, and child health, chronic disease management, preventive medicine, health assessments, vaccination clinics, skin checks, and occupational health services for businesses and industries. This holistic approach ensures that the community's health needs are met effectively and safely.

Best Field Trip contest returns, closes soon AFTER massive interest last year, the University of the Sunshine Coast is offering another chance for senior high school students to join the Best Field Trip in the World.

Five students in Years 11 or 12 will win a spot alongside world-class scientists on a trip to some of the most stunning and educational places on earth, right here in Queensland.

The field trip is a four-day adventure in June featuring whale-watching, a trip to the world’s largest sand island, cultural immersion, a premier netball match, joining a rugby league match with a human biomechanics expert, an encounter with robotic dogs, and a chance to join current UniSC students on their outdoor field trip.

The adventure stretches from Brisbane through the Sunshine Coast and north to the Fraser Coast and K’gari (Fraser Island).

UniSC Vice-Chancellor and President, Professor Helen Bartlett, said the field trip covered three UNESCO Biosphere Reserves, the only place in the world where three sat side-by-side.

“Biospheres are not only ecologically fascinating and beautiful places to conduct

study and conservation work, but they are also closely located to places where people live, learn and interact with the landscape,” Professor Bartlett said.

A biosphere reserve is globally recognised as an ‘international site of excellence’ where people live and work sustainably alongside active conservation and sustainable development.

She said that we were fortunate to have access to such a rich network of landscapes, biodiversity, cultural heritage and communities.

UNESCO lists seven types of ecosystem-specific networks globally, and Queensland’s biospheres encompass five – mangroves, marine coastal and island areas, mountains, tropical forest and wetlands.

They stretch 222 kilometres, from the world’s largest sand island K’gari through coastlines and waterways to the subtropical rainforests and mountains of Noosa and the Sunshine Coast.

“What makes this trip even more special is that winners get to visit these places alongside subject matter experts – they're not just watching a football match, they’re going behind the scenes with a sport exercise scientist to dig deeper and learn more,” Professor Bartlett said.

Entrants must submit a 60-second video entry that answers the question: What do you hope to gain from this experience? Entries close Monday 3 June.

The trip will take place Friday 21 to Monday 24 June.

FITNESSTALK

Empower yourself with motivation and discipline WAITING for motivation is akin to watching life pass by, a passive spectator to our own existence.

It’s time to shatter this illusion and embrace the power of discipline.

Strengthen your mind, fortify your body, and watch as the world bends to your will.

Discipline isn’t just a trait; it’s the very essence of resilience, the backbone of success.

It’s about waking up before dawn not because the world demands it, but because your dreams command it.

It’s about showing up, day in and day out, even when the applause fades and the spotlight dims.

It’s a commitment not to a goal, but to a way of being – one where excuses have no place and mediocrity is the enemy.

And let’s not forget: discipline is more than just physical strength; it’s a state of mind.

It’s about removing emotion

from the equation and stepping up to the plate, regardless of how you feel.

Too often, we let our emotions dictate our actions,

allowing fear, doubt, and uncertainty to hold us back.

But true discipline lies in transcending these limitations, in harnessing the power of our will to overcome any obstacle in our path.

Get addicted to the feelings that come from training, how

your body and mind feel alive with each movement, each challenge conquered.

Set your life up for success by training early, even sleeping in your workout clothes or laying them out the night before.

Pack your gym bag and go straight after work, eliminating the temptation to detour home and waste time scrolling mindlessly on your phone.

So let’s rewrite the narrative of our lives, replacing waiting with action, uncertainty with determination, and fear with courage.

Let’s embrace the discomfort of growth, knowing that it’s the price we pay for progress.

Let’s cultivate a mindset of discipline, where each day is an opportunity to push our limits and redefine what’s possible.

LIVEWELLHERVEYBAYTALKS

Education For Life with Luke Schoff THE LIVEWELL Hervey Bay podcast recently sat down with Luke Schoff, Principal at St James Lutheran College.

The focus of this podcast was to explore the importance of staying educated, not just as a child but throughout your life.

Lifelong learning is essential for both personal and professional growth. It keeps us mentally active, helps us adapt to new trends and technologies, and enriches our understanding of the world around us.

Today we see school principals as more of a CEO than a hands-on day to day educator.

“Absolutely, we have a substantial number of staff and students but it’s also a business that needs to run efficiently and meet KPIs”, said

Luke Schoff.

“We have all the standards and the expectations that you would have with any other employer”.

“But the most amazing thing we’re doing is we are educating young people every day, partnering, educating and walking alongside them on their learning journey through to their real formative years”.

“That’s what I love about it, whatever school you’re in independent, Catholic, private it’s a challenging but a very rewarding job”.

“I grew up in rural New South Wales on a farm. My parents were primary producers and my older siblings went off to university and became teachers.”

“With that I just always remember

wanting to be a teacher, I wanted to teach young children not secondary age kids teenagers scared me, they still do, as do the younger ones sometimes”.

“Education has changed, we used to have this idea that formal education was for primary, secondary and sometimes tertiary pathways and that was the only time for learning”.

“Now we are not just creating students we are creating learners and walking alongside them to be learners for life”.

“I like to use the term lifelong learners. People don’t want the same job for the next 35 years; they want different careers throughout the different stages in their life’s”.

“We have a wealth of information at our fingers tips now than what

we did say 20-30 years ago”.

“Think back to when our teachers would tell us we wouldn’t have a calculator in our back pocket, well jokes on them, with mobile phones nowadays”.

“As we get older we need to remember that learning new things and stretching ourselves is so important”.

“The more you grow, the more it will assist your longevity and your perception of the world around you”.

“Even just engaging in some form of learning will keep you mentally fit”.

“A key point to think about in adult learning is not to do so in isolation, get out in community groups put yourself in a room with diverse people”.

“Be challenged, reflect on your learnings and be open to other people’s views and thoughts”.

When discussing the future of teaching with the possibilities and scope of AI Luke was very optimistic.

“There are so many amazing opportunities that AI has presented to us”.

“We are very familiar with just being able to do a search, but AI can refine that search so much more. Giving us a background of what those searched words really mean”.

“Another example, I just did it with my IT department with a little script that we simply put into the AI generator, sampled my voice, then my voice read that script back to us.

It’s scary, but awesome. It sounded

just like me!”.

“This could be a problem in education with students handing in super assignments but we know our students and would notice if their work had more finesse than usual”.

“Gone are the days where you are graded on just one assignment it’s a whole range of things now”.

“But what’s most important is we are teaching kids how to be ethical.

Our job is to teach people how to be more human”.

“At St. James, our commitment to continuous learning is at the heart of what we do, and it’s one of the aspects I love most about my job and role here”.

“We’re not just focused on children’s education; as adults, we are learners too.

Design a Bookmark PROPERTYTALK Winners Announced Begin with the end VIBRANCE, intrigue, joy, and a lot of fungi have featured in this year's winning entries in Fraser Coast Libraries’ annual Design-a-Bookmark Competition.

Fraser Coast Mayor George Seymour said Council had a massive 257 entries this year, up from 183 last year.

“This was a brilliant opportunity to get creative and get your artwork published as a bookmark,” said Cr Seymour.

“Entries have increased steadily every year, so thank you to everyone who took the time to enter.

“For the first time, we included a new category for the 60+ age group which was well supported.”

Five of the six categories were judged by Hervey Bay Regional Gallery Curator Llewellyn Millhouse who was impressed with the quality and creativity this year.

“Our youngest winner showed such sophistication in her design while our oldest winner gave us a delightful portrait of a Maryborough cottage, which is a creative way to celebrate our region,”

in mind: the future of Hervey Bay

said Mr Millhouse.

Cr Seymour said the People’s Choice Award was well supported this year with library staff receiving 1193 votes from residents who were invited to choose their favorite design.

“The entrants put in a magnificent effort creating their imaginative bookmark designs, and we’re delighted to acknowledge each of them by displaying their artwork,” he said.

“The winning bookmarks will soon be printed, and the winners will be presented with their $50 gift cards at a special ceremony in May. “The winning bookmarks will also be available for free

at all five library branches across the region.”

Fraser Coast Libraries receives financial assistance from the Queensland Government through the State Library of Queensland.

The winners of the Fraser Coast Libraries’ Design-a-Bookmark Competition are: • 6 years and under – Mika De La Roche • 7 to 11 years Henrietta Elliott • 12 to 17 years – Taelah Rowe • 18 – 59 years – Katie Bell • 60+ years – Carmel Davey • People’s Choice Award - Mia Lera

RECENTLY, one of Australia’s leading demographers, Simon Kuestenmacher from The Demographics Group, visited Hervey Bay. His presentation made it clear that our town needs to change direction.

Currently, Hervey Bay has an aging population with an average age over 51.

Over the next 20 years, this population will require high levels of care.

Our current healthcare sector is already understaffed, and this situation will worsen as our workforce ages.

To address this impending crisis, we must attract a younger population to Hervey Bay. This means offering education opportunities and training to retain young people, ensuring they can cater to our future needs.

entertainment and career opportunities.

Changing our direction involves rethinking our infrastructure, lifestyle opportunities, and even the culture of our city.

Legal Health with Melissa Guilfoyle THE LIVEWELL Hervey Bay podcast recently had a conversation with Melissa Guilfoyle, a leading lawyer on the Fraser Coast.

The focus of this podcast was to explore various legal issues that individuals and our community are facing, and how you can live a better life, knowing that you’re secure with all your legal obligations.

“A very topical question in our community at the moment is about youth crime,” said Melissa Guilfoyle.

“I don’t see it as a youth crime problem, it’s a crime problem and we have that in every region, it’s always been a problem”.

“We’ve got crime problems everywhere but we have legislations in place to protect people from harm”.

“It’s about finding ways to

properly address criminal behaviour”.

“There are a few options on addressing criminal behaviour and that could be punitive or it could be rehabilitative”.

“The punitive option is what the community are really troubled about at the moment.

They feel like people are not being punished enough for their crimes”.

“I think we need to be focusing on rehabilitation and the root cause of the criminal behaviour”.

“I am a general lawyer therefore I do focus on a lot of areas of the law and conveyancing is one of those”.

“I’m seeing a lot of people moving to our region”.

“With the population increasing we get more people, which unfortunately means more crime”.

“I am no way underplaying these crimes, we have had a lot of serious matters in our region lately”.

“However, it’s not just our region, many others are having similar escalating behaviours”.

“We don’t have a one punishment fits all”.

“There is a legal system in place, we have defence lawyers and we have prosecutors”.

“Queensland Police Service have their prosecutors that will appear in court and make the allegations against the defendant”.

“The defendant will have their criminal defence lawyer”.

How does one defend a guilty people?

“My job as a defence lawyer is not to necessarily to defend guilty people, but it’s to make sure all the processes

“Then if they are guilty, what’s the appropriate penalty would be based on precedence and community expectations”.

“A specific deterrent is given to each individual, to make sure that any penalty given will stop them doing it again”.

“Childhood trauma can be quite a significant predictor of future behaviour, but people also make mistakes.”

“You may not necessarily be setting out to do something wrong, but sometimes other pressures may lead to errors in judgment which then lands you in court”.

“I always want what’s right for the client, I don’t want people to be unfairly punished”.

“Making sure that they are not accused of things that they haven’t done or unjustly or harshly punished for things because of their circumstances”.

What are the things that we need to be conscious of from a legal perspective?

“Lawyers look after your wills and enduring powers of attorney”.

“These two documents will protect your assets should something happen to you”.

“An enduring power of attorney will give someone the legal power to look after your assets and financials, if you’re still alive but not capable of making general, legal or medical decisions”.

“Your will leaves someone directly in charge of how to distribute your assets should you pass away”.

“Make sure you have your policies and procedures in place, in your life and your work environment”.

What advice would Melissa give to her younger self.

“Taking time off isn’t a bad thing”.

“I think people are so keen to figure out what they want to do for the rest of their lives in high school, they put too much pressure on themselves.

“Not realising that what happens in high school doesn’t always matter 20 years down the track”.

“You’ve got every opportunity, you can do whatever you want, there are no shackles, there is a way”.

“If you’re driven enough, there is always a way to find out how to do what you want”.

A BOLD new strategy, aimed at empowering Neighbourhood and Community Centres to design and deliver services to meet the specific needs of their communities, has been released.

The strategic plan was developed by a specially-convened Strategic Re-Positioning Committee made up of leaders from the Neighbourhood Centre sector, including HBNC CEO Tanya Stevenson, alongside experts from related fields.

The plan, produced as part of the Queensland Government’s Communities 2032 Strategy, outlines a framework guiding the future direction of Queensland’s Neighbourhood Centres, while considering opportunities to strengthen their capacity to deliver programs and services specific to their communities.

Tanya said the strategy represented a significant milestone for the social

sector.

“The vision outlined in this co-designed framework includes undertaking significant sector reform to amplify the voices of Neighbourhood Centres, acknowledge their wisdom as placebased experts in their communities and recognise their extraordinary social value in connecting with local community members,” Tanya said.

“At their core, Neighbourhood Centres are inclusive and welcoming for everyone, which is why their role is particularly important as we strive to address issues such as social isolation and loneliness, and implement initiatives to support community recovery as part of the Communities 2032 strategy.”

The Communities 2032 Strategy is Queensland’s first long-term, holistic strategy for our communities.

It will guide Queensland Government action over 10

years, towards our vision that Queensland’s communities support and empower every person to connect, participate, contribute and thrive.

Communities 2032 is a longterm plan to strengthen the fabric of our communities and to help Queenslanders live their best lives.

Strong communities are essential to our economic prosperity, wellbeing and future opportunities.

Communities 2032 is a roadmap to four key destinations that represent our aspirations for Queensland.

Key goals outlined in the strategy include:

• Vibrant, inclusive and cohesive communities.

• Healthy, accessible and liveable communities.

• Safe and resilient communities.

• Supported and responsive communities.

This was the environment in which her four children grew up.

Tragically, Dorothy lost two of her sons to suicide, years apart and feels the loss deeply.

Over the years, Dorothy has been in the depths of despair many times, but somehow always found the strength to keep fighting.

“My parents were very negative people. At a young age, I was determined to be a positive person, even before I knew what that meant. I just knew I wanted to be the opposite of them”.

Dorothy has always valued freedom as it was often missing from her life. She now gladly embraces that freedom every day.

The State of Seniors Report

THE FRASER Coast, like many regions across Queensland, is experiencing a demographic shift marked by a significant increase in its senior population, in a region historically experiencing a relatively higher population.

The Hervey Bay Neighbourhood Centre (HBNC) has recently released The State of Seniors Report, a resource of the Seniors Legal and Support Service, that identifies the gaps when comparing state & national seniors data with local results.

The comprehensive report draws on data from several credible sources including: • Directly from local seniors for the 2024 Fraser Coast Seniors Survey undertaken by HBNC • 2021 Census with the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) • Research on specific social determinants impacting seniors • Queensland and National data relevant to this report According to the inaugural Fraser Coast State of Seniors Report 2024, nearly one in three individuals on the Fraser Coast is classified as a senior, aged 65 years and over. This statistic, sourced from the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) 2021 Census, highlights a demographic trend that is expected to continue, with forecasts indicating that seniors will make up 35% of the population by 2041.

While the increase in life expectancy is undoubtedly a cause for celebration, it also presents challenges and opportunities for regions such as Hervey Bay. As Australians live longer, there is a growing need to ensure that our region is age-friendly and equipped to support older individuals in leading fulfilling and participatory lives.

Demographically, the Fraser Coast stands out with a significantly higher proportion of older residents compared to both Queensland and Australia. This trend can be attributed to a combination of national aging population patterns and local dynamics, including the influx of retirees to the area since the 1970s.

The most recent ABS Census (2021) states the Fraser Coast has the second highest proportion of seniors in the state; 30% of the population aged 65+ compared to 17% for Queensland. Burrum Heads has a senior population of 57%.

However, alongside the benefits of increased longevity come a host of challenges. Seniors on the Fraser Coast face social and economic hurdles, including the rising cost of living, elder abuse, scamming, and social isolation.

Financial strain, in particular, emerges as a pressing issue, with a majority of seniors surveyed reporting some level of impact on their finances, affecting essential expenses such as groceries and healthcare.

The 2021 Census reported 6.4% of seniors on the Fraser Coast are engaged in paid work compared to the Queensland state average of 13% and Australia wide 14%. Another 35% of senior respondents expressed concern about housing affordability.

The Census data indicates most Fraser Coast seniors (46%) have an income between $300-$500 per week. The region clearly has a lower socioeconomic population with only 7.9% of Fraser Coast seniors having an income of $1,000 or more per week compared to the state average of 13.8%.

Healthcare access is another concern, with a significant portion of seniors expressing hesitancy or difficulty in accessing necessary medical services due to cost implications. This is especially troubling given the rising incidence of chronic health conditions among older individuals, including arthritis, heart disease, diabetes, depression, and anxiety. The report identifies 20% of Hervey Bay seniors needing assistance.

Furthermore, many seniors on the Fraser Coast are unprepared for later life, lacking essential legal arrangements such as Enduring Powers of Attorney and residing in housing unsuitable for aging.

A staggering 42% of seniors are not registered with My Aged Care, a starting point to accessing federally funded aged care services and limiting their access to crucial support services.

Despite these challenges, the report also highlights the positive aspects of aging, as noted by a sizable portion of respondents.

Factors such as increased freedom, wisdom gained from life experience, and reduced day-to-day stress contribute to a more positive outlook on aging.

Volunteering plays a very important role with many seniors; approximately 1 in 7 seniors on the Fraser Coast do volunteer work. The report acknowledges recognised mental health benefits associated with volunteer work, including reduced symptoms of depression, better self-reported health, fewer functional limitations, and lower mortality.

The Fraser Coast Seniors Survey reported 49% of respondents were attending a community or social group. The most common types of groups attended were health and exercise (28%), art and craft (14.8%), church groups (11.7%), and clubs / associations (10.9%).

We will look at a local program – The Aged Care Volunteer Visitors Scheme – that has had a presence locally for nearly 30 years that aims to combat social isolation.

To address the multifaceted needs of seniors, the concept of “positive aging” emerges as a guiding principle, emphasising the importance of maintaining a positive attitude, staying physically and mentally active, and engaging fully in community life.

More than one in three Fraser Coast seniors feel positive about ageing.

The Queensland Government’s commitment to age-friendly communities is evident through its affiliation with the World Health Organization’s Global Network for Age-friendly Cities and Communities (WHO).

In line with this, the government launched the Queensland Age-Friendly Community Strategic Direction Statement in 2016, aligning with the WHO framework.

ISSUE NINE - PROUDLY SUPPORTED BY

An Action Plan ensued, targeting the eight domains outlined

by WHO. Subsequently, a Report Card in 2018-2019 highlighted achievements, including the Advancing Queensland grants program, increased Seniors Card +go issuance, and support services like the Taxi Subsidy Scheme and RentConnect’s Advisory Services.

Workshops and initiatives like Skilling Queenslanders for Work aimed to build capacity and challenge stereotypes about ageing.

The Future Directions for an Age-Friendly Queensland, launched in October 2022, emphasised connectivity, support, and contribution for older Queenslanders.

Looking ahead, the government is developing a Seniors Strategy slated for release in 2024, reinforcing its dedication to creating inclusive and supportive environments for older citizens.

Locally, initiatives such as the Fraser Coast Regional Council Community Plan 2031 aim to promote respect and inclusion for seniors, recognising their valuable contributions to the community. However, there remains a call to action for the broader community to actively support seniors in aging positively and enjoying meaningful lives.

Grief and loss impact seniors’ lives more often than any other age group. The survey reports that 71% of Australian seniors have experienced at least one bereavement in the last 30 months. The National Ageing Research Institute indicates that 21% of seniors meet the criteria for prolonged grief.

We will highlight in this feature supportive groups such as the Loss and Grief Support Group with a presence in Hervey Bay. The inaugural Fraser Coast State of Seniors Report 2024 underscores the importance of addressing the evolving needs of an aging population in our region.

By acknowledging the challenges faced by seniors and embracing opportunities for positive aging, the Fraser Coast can strive towards becoming a more age-friendly and inclusive community for individuals of all ages. Through collective action and commitment, we can ensure that seniors on the Fraser Coast continue to thrive and contribute to the vibrancy of our region.

PROGRAM

Aged Care Volunteers Visitors Scheme Dealing with loss and grief for seniors SENIORS, more than any other demographic, bear the weight of grief and loss with a frequency and intensity that demands attention and support.

The recent State of Seniors report released states 71% of Australian seniors have experienced at least one bereavement in the last two and half years.

In terms of prolonged grief, the report indicates 21% of Australian seniors meet the criteria.

It’s the kind of grief that accompanies the loss of a lifelong partner, the erosion of financial security, or the departure of a cherished friend. It’s a poignant reminder that grief knows no bounds of age or experience.

There is no preparation for the loss of your partner in life. It brings a mix of intense feelings, of deep sadness, anger, guilt, confusion and fear that there is no specific time limit that can be forecasted. There is also gratitude with memories of happier times.

Blue Care has recognised the need to support people while they undertake the journey of dealing with a loss of life, and has been conducting a specialised Grief and Loss program for over three decades.

Sharon Kirk, Lead Facilitator in Hervey Bay for the Blue Care Grief and Loss Program, says the grieving process is different for everyone and many need extra support to understand what they are going through.

“Our courses are designed for people to speak amongst a group that share common experiences in grief and loss, and provide emotional, social and practical support for group members,” says Sharon.

“Participants really benefit from sharing their experiences in the safety of a small group.”

The course is a structured program of two hours per week over eight weeks.

We had the honour of hearing the stories of the participants, listening to their experience of losing partners of 30+ years and the challenge of dealing with grief over varying periods.

A male participant spoke about losing his wife of 35 years only three months ago and how the group had helped him speak about his feelings and the bond it had created for him with the group by sharing his stories.

Another female participant spoke about watching her husband of 39 years lose his three year battle with cancer last year and still coming to terms with her feelings.

Lead Facilitator Sharon Kirk spoke about the tools they provide to participants, such as journaling, that had been beneficial for many who have undertaken the program.

While they are grieving among seniors, the sense of resilience is undeniable. Despite the weight of their sorrows, they continue to embody strength, wisdom, and focus on gratitude.

One participant, Cathie, spoke openly about the importance of “living your life” and the need for more social gatherings and senior groups such as “Cruise Buddies” that can play a role in their recovery.

IN THE TWILIGHT of their lives, seniors often find themselves navigating through the complexities of social isolation and loneliness. The elderly encounter profound challenges in maintaining meaningful connections with others while dealing with the loss of friends and loved ones. This issue of social isolation among seniors is a poignant narrative that warrants attention and compassionate understanding.

At the heart of this issue lies the human need for belonging and companionship.

Furthermore, the digital divide exacerbates these challenges, as many seniors may lack access to technology or feel intimidated by its forever changing world.

In an increasingly interconnected world, the inability to navigate digital platforms can further isolate seniors, cutting them off from vital avenues of communication and support.

The Aged Care Volunteer Visitors Scheme (ACVVS), formerly known as the Community Visitors Scheme (CVS), has been a pillar of support for older individuals for over three decades. Renamed in response to the Royal Commission into Aged Care Quality and Safety, ACVVS aims to combat social isolation among the elderly, particularly those at higher risk.

The scheme offers free volunteer visits, emphasizing friendship and companionship to foster social connections. Targeting older individuals in government-subsidised residential aged care or Home Care Packages, ACVVS prioritises those lacking regular positive contact with friends or relatives and experiencing loneliness or mobility impairments.

Program Officer, Caitelan Hayes, says the program is about friendships.

“The matches we facilitate are all about companionship. You are becoming a part of their lives,” says Caitelan.

By offering companionship and support, ACVVS strives to enhance the well-being of vulnerable older individuals, aligning with broader efforts to improve aged care quality and safety.

Central to the success of the ACVVS are its dedicated volunteers, who undergo rigorous training to ensure they can confidently fulfil their roles. These volunteers commit to making a minimum of 20 visits per year to their matched aged care recipients, spending quality time engaging in various activities such as sharing stories, pursuing hobbies together, or simply taking a leisurely stroll.

Through these interactions, genuine friendships blossom, providing seniors with the companionship they crave.

Caitelan coordinates 15 volunteers in Hervey Bay and hopes the program can expand in future years as there is a definite need in the local community.

Accessing ACVVS is facilitated through various channels, including aged care providers, family or friends, or selfidentification. State Network Members coordinate referrals and match volunteers with recipients. The Department of Health and Aged Care website provides a list of ACVVS Network Members for contact details.

As the ACVVS continues to gain momentum, its impact on the lives of seniors across Australia becomes increasingly evident. By fostering meaningful connections and alleviating feelings of isolation, this program stands as a beacon of hope for our aging population. Through ongoing support and collaboration, we can ensure that every senior receives the companionship and care they deserve in their golden years.

PROGRAM

Senior volunteer mentoring the youth LIVE life experiences and learnings are common characteristics for seniors who share their knowledge with future generations, and this provides enormous hope for our region.

Seniors bring a wealth of life experience to the table. They have navigated personal and professional challenges, witnessed historical events and developed a depth of knowledge that only time can provide. When they share their stories and insights with younger generations, they offer invaluable lessons that go beyond textbooks and classroom walls.

For nearly a decade, Ross Hamilton has been a steadfast volunteer for the Youth Mentoring Program, devoting approximately two hours per week for 30 weeks each year. Over these years, Ross estimates he has positively impacted around 150 young individuals.

Volunteering has been part of Ross’s life for many years but his journey into youth mentoring began unexpectedly. He had been volunteering for U3A teaching Seniors guitar lessons when a visit to the Hervey Bay Neighbourhood Centre allowed him to encounter a training session for Youth Mentoring that was set to begin the next day.

While a satisfying career as a pharmacist has allowed him a fortunate life, he recognises he would have appreciated someone’s help with his schoolwork when he needed it. He remembers the formative years at school and how he would have appreciated the support in learning skills such as maths.

He currently helps students at Carinity Education Glendyne where they create an alternative schooling option for students and vulnerable young people for “a chance to achieve and realise their

dreams”.

Ross recalled a recent session with maths on calculating interest and marvelled at how engaged the students were and the benefits the skills would provide in later life.

“I often get asked by the students “why do you come here but don’t get paid?” but it’s the basic skills we take for granted that I get a real kick out of seeing these students learn,” says Ross.

His motivation to connect with students and offer support in subjects like math, envisioning the positive impact such assistance could have had in his own past, combined with the satisfaction of volunteering provides a rewarding experience to him.

The benefits of mentoring for seniors are reciprocal. While young people gain guidance and support, seniors experience personal growth and satisfaction. Many mentors report feeling rejuvenated and inspired by the energy and creativity of their younger counterparts.

This interaction can help combat feelings of isolation and loneliness that are common among older adults. Moreover, mentoring provides seniors with an opportunity to stay engaged and active, contributing to their overall well-being and mental health.

“I grew up with the common statement “make yourself useful” and I have always tried to do that. Volunteering can be quite meaningful, and if you have the time and interest, you can get a lot of satisfaction from helping our youth.”

Ross believes in looking for the good in people. He sees many students that have challenging backgrounds, yet they want to succeed and need that guidance.

Ross Hamilton Ross Hamilton’s story highlights the profound impact that volunteering can have, not only on the recipients but also on the volunteers themselves. His dedication and passion serve as a powerful reminder of the difference one person can make in their community

Creating new social connections can start at any age HAVING positive social connections is widely reported to improve health, wellbeing and quality of life. No matter what stage of life you are at, it is never too late to start building connections.

HBNC’s 12-week Connecting Communities Program links members of the Fraser Coast community with social activities, groups and clubs with the aim of reducing loneliness and social isolation.

Located at the Urangan Community Wellness Centre, program staff offer a safe and welcoming environment for those looking to find friendship, meet new people, try something new or join an activity or group.

Team Leader Karla Steen said community members of all ages were taking part in the program and had great success matching to groups and activities they might not have known existed.

She said a large number of program participants were aged over 60, had recently retired, moved to the area or lost a loved one.

Karla said there was a wide range of wonderful support groups, clubs and activities but sometimes community members needed support finding them or assistance to attend.

Over 12 weeks, staff work with participants to help them identify their interests, goals and any barriers that may be prohibiting them from engaging socially.

“Social anxiety, fear, grief, sadness and shyness can prevent people from enjoying social interaction,” Karla said.

“We offer that little bit of support and assistance to help people connect in their own time with no pressure.

“Our staff search the community for opportunities that meet the interests of participants and then help them access those activities, groups or other services.

“The ultimate aim is finding new avenues for friendship, engagement and purpose.”

How to Connect with the Connecting Communities Program:

Breaking the Stigma on Loneliness

One in three people feel lonely at some time in their life, according to research from the Ending Loneliness Australia campaign.

Sometimes a change in life circumstances can make a big difference in someone’s life.

Loss of a partner, retirement, a new illness or moving to a new suburb or town can lead to people feeling lonely or isolated.

Despite being very common, many people feel ashamed to talk about loneliness and 50% of people say they wouldn’t tell any anyone about their feelings of loneliness.

Karla said the Connecting Communities program was focused on breaking down some of these barriers and helping create a conversation around loneliness and where to seek assistance.

“We encourage people who may be feeling lonely or socially isolated to contact us, come and have a cuppa and hear about how the Connecting Communities program can help find and create new social connections,” Karla said.

It’s auction time.

Should you keep bidding?

When it comes to buying property, you can never know too much. As a local, and an expert on loans and lenders, I can share all the ins and outs of the neighbourhood and help you understand how your repayments will change with each bid.

Before auction day, it’s worth having a chat with a local broker such as myself.

Weekly additional payments by incremental loan amount

Here’s why: 4 I work with over 60 lenders to find the right loan for you 4 I make sure you can understand your maximum borrowing capacity 4 I can organise a pre-approval (which gives you the green light) from a lender to spend up to a certain amount 4 I can make sure you’re clear about the cost of making another bid.

How much does an extra bid cost?

If the property you love is going to auction, it’s good to know the difference that a higher bid will make on your repayments.
