At 63, she finally found the courage to leave.

But she left without superannuation, without a home and without anywhere safe to go.

For older women experiencing family violence, leaving can mean facing homelessness and financial insecurity after decades of abuse.

A woman should never have to choose between violence and homelessness — at any age.

Add your name and stand with women rebuilding their lives after violence:

🛒 Our groceries shouldn’t come wrapped in a sea of plastic.

Disposable plastic packaging remains everywhere in Australia’s supermarkets, while packaging accounts for 58% of litter found during beach clean-ups across the country.

More than 6,000 people have already joined the call—but we need to keep the pressure on Woolworths, Coles, ALDI and Metcash (IGA and Foodland) to:

🌊 Provide more plastic-free grocery options
🌊 Publish how much plastic packaging they use
🌊 Develop effective reuse strategies

Add your name and help show Australia’s major supermarkets that customers want real action on plastic pollution.
