We know that big changes can feel overwhelming, but it's important to know that nothing is changing overnight.

Most updates will be introduced gradually, and we'll be here to help you understand what they mean when they happen, and what you need to do (if anything).

Jonathon Milne didn't take up archery with the goal of becoming a Paralympian, he started because he was looking for something to do while recovering from an accident.

Many of us Aussies feel lonely, but connecting with other people is such an important part of being human, and of living a happy and fulfilling life 💜

We're in the middle of Loneliness Awareness Week, an initiative of Ending Loneliness Together, so why not take a moment to pause and think about how you might make more room for connection in the coming days ✨ Even a tiny act of inclusion can help us all feel like we belong more.

We'd love you to add your ideas on how to make room for connection below, but if you need a kickstart, here's some simple ones👇

- Sit next to someone new (at work, on transport)
- Eat with others
- Comment or DM instead of simply ‘liking’ someone’s social media post
- Volunteer with a local organisation
