Dear Friends and Colleagues,

GPV/KCV is pleased to launch its first video talk. This subject is one already causing chat amongst kinship carers. It is expected that this video will also foster the sorts of conversations that lead to shared and positive outcomes from each chat we have – no matter with whom or where or about what.

Dear Readers,

Late last year a number of GPV/KCV Board members attended the national Ending Loneliness Together conference in Melbourne. As a result, the Board decided to highlight the problem and the need for each one of us take some action to address this worldwide issue.

This paper is food for thought and ends with some helpful tip sheets drawn from the Ending Loneliness Together website.

I recommend it to you all.

Cheers,
Anne McLeish
