19 JULY: No Laughing Matter podcast launch

19 July 2023 @ 6:00 pm - 10:00 pm

No Laughing Matter podcast launch

Fundraiser to create a safer community for all children

MC: Craig Foster

Keynote speaker: Rosanna Barbero

Comedic performances: Luke Heggie & Julia Wilson

Musical performance: Peter Northcote

No Laughing Matter is a podcast series on an incredibly challenging topic: intra-familial child sexual abuse (incest). Short stories of victim/survivors are narrated by well-known voices: actors, comedians, media and sport personalities including, Jean Kittson, Chrissy Swan, Hugo Weaving, Jennifer Byrne, Andrew Denton, Sam Mostyn, Craig Foster, Annabel Crabb, and many more.

Tanya Lee, No Laughing Matter founder and producer, acknowledges the topic of incest is an incredibly challenging one.

Tanya and Addi Road encourage you to attend this launch to help No Laughing Matter raise awareness, dismantle stigma, and raise funds to help ensure they can continue their national campaign.

Ultimately, the No Laughing Matter team and narrators want a call for government to provide specific counselling services, a plan for better national education access and to create a safer community for all children.
