| ABC MyView is ABC Radio Canberra Breakfast's new social experiment in sound. We want you to use your smart phone to send us a voice message; a kind of audio diary entry. This week, we’re keen to hear from kids of all ages – from kindy to year 12 – about their experiences during isolation. What do you think adults have loved most about lockdown, and what have they complained about most? Email your voice memo to the Breakfast team at canberrabreakfast@abc.net.au. The best recordings will be played on air, so tune for Breakfast with Lish from 5.30-9am weekdays! | |

| COVID-19 Older Persons Support Line | | Do you know an older Australian who may not have proper access to the internet or the confidence to be able to find COVID-19 information online? A free COVID-19 Support Line is now available for senior Australians, their families and carers, to provide the critical information they need to stay healthy and safe during the pandemic. The support line can be accessed 8.30am - 6pm Monday to Friday on 1800 171 866 and can be used for personal support, questions and up-to-date guidelines. ABC Radio has also launched a new national segment, Getting On with Angela Catterns, a COVID-19 special feature targeted at seniors with no digital connection to get up to date information and learn more about the issues impacting older Australians. Getting On is broadcast Sundays at 5.30pm AEST across all Local Radio channels. | |

What's Questacon like when there's no people visiting? |
|
| |
|
| ABC Canberra’s field reporter Georgia Stynes dropped into a very quiet Questacon to hear from staff about what’s happening behind the scenes at the iconic National Science and Technology Centre while the doors are closed. | | | |
|
|
| We’ve got a great line up of activities, live events and articles to help you explore what reconciliation means, the history of reconciliation in Australia, and where we’re heading. | | | |
