INTERVIEW | Promoting film with Asian Cinema Collective

Midweek Confessions returns to the Cereal Box with Sam, Jess and Ruta sharing the moments from their week they probably shouldn’t admit to. Ruta reveals she somehow ended up buying sushi from the same place four times in a row, Jess shares an awkward encounter with a crush, and Sam debuts a brand new (and very questionable) theme song for the segment.

Relatable? Maybe. Slightly embarrassing? Definitely.

MIDWEEK CONFESSIONS | Sushi streaks, awkward crushes and a new theme song

Sam, Jess and Ruta chat with Bec from Little Dreamers about the organisation’s mission to support young people aged 4 to 25 who care for family members affected by disability, illness or other challenges. In celebration of National Dream Day, Bec explains how Little Dreamers helps young carers still pursue their own ambitions while balancing huge responsibilities at home.

They also talk about some of the inspiring dreams young carers have shared, what support looks like for kids who may not know what their future holds yet, and how the wider community can get involved to help these young people achieve their goals.
