Jack’s Walk for Veterans
23 April 2021 | 10:27am
A Teenager’s ANZAC Day Walk
A 15 year old will commemorate ANZAC Day by walking from the Mulwala RSL Dawn Service to the Bundalong Tavern, in full military kit, to raise money and awareness for veterans.
Jack Mcqualter-Whyte was inspired to play a part in supporting returned service men and women after learning about their struggles.
“I was looking at statistics behind our veterans who returned home from Afghanistan and other places suffering from PTSD, and thought it was pretty bad numbers and thought it would be a good thing to go out there and support them,” Jack told Kylie and Kev.
Workers With Plenty to Give
When 62 year old Wodonga resident Stephen sold his business, he never expected he’d still be looking for a job six months later.
While several industries and businesses claim they are desperate for workers, Stephen’s experience indicates he may be missing out, due to his age.
In desperation, he contacted the Neil Mitchell Program to explain his dilemma.
“I’m very fit, very healthy, I’ve run hotels, motels and nightclubs for the past 40 years, so I’m very skilled up, but I can’t get a look in as soon as they know my age,” he said.
Eat, Play and Support Local Business
The NSW Government has launched Dine & Discover to encourage the NSW community to get out and about and support dining, arts and tourism businesses.
NSW residents aged 18 and over can apply for 4 x $25 vouchers, worth $100 in total

Stylish Get Together
An industry event to ‘raise a glass’ and embrace the challenges tackled by the region’s barbers and stylists in the past 12 months is gaining momentum.
Organiser Casey Lea says, like many industries, the past 12 months of the pandemic and border closures has been challenging.
“When COVID first hit, hairdressers and barbers were still classed as an essential service – so we were standing really close to people – it was a very grey area,” Casey said.
“In NSW we were allowed to stay open, but our poor hairdressers and barbers in Victoria had to close – clients in NSW couldn’t come over – it was up and down.
