We have two incredible guests joining us today. First, we’ll be speaking with Jo Winwood from the Rotary Club of Byron Bay, an organisation that has been quietly, consistently, and compassionately supporting young people in our Shire for more than three decades, recognising that their physical and mental wellbeing underpins the strength of our future community.

The Rotary has become increasingly aware of the growing challenges facing young people, particularly in relation to body image and mental health. Social media’s having a profound impact on self-esteem, and we’re seeing rising concerns around body dissatisfaction and eating disorders.

Rotary has teamed up with Body Bloom, a progressive high school-delivered program providing young women, parents and carers with the motivational tools to establish confidence, self-empowerment, and body appreciation for prevailing physical and mental health. 

After that, we’ll be joined by Alix Livingstone founding director of Defend the Wild, ahead of a powerful double‑feature documentary screening at the Brunswick Picture House on Sunday May 17th, two films that explore the deep cultural, ecological, and spiritual significance of The Dingo.

Alix is motivated by a desire to address the complex challenges confronting Australian wildlife. With a wealth of experience and a deep commitment to collaborating with various stakeholders on the ground Alix and her team ensure that solutions can be found that benefit wildlife, ecosystems, and communities.

Spearheading the development of Defend the Wild's Dingo campaign, Alix is shedding light on the government-sanctioned treatment of Dingoes across Victoria but the plight to save the dingo is a National one.

Removing Dingoes from Country is causing an ecological crisis.

Alix has more to share when she joins us around 10am.

Two very different conversations, but both rooted in the same idea: when we look after our young people and our Country, we look after our future.

Documentaries:

#1 Moort: Calling Dingo back to Country

#2 Landholders for Dingoes film Wooleen: Utilising Dingoes as a Management Strategy
