ABC Heywire celebrates 38 young regional Australians in its 2022 storytelling competition.
Since 1998, Heywire has become a powerful platform for rural youth to share their stories and make a difference in their communities. This year, hundreds of people entered from across Australia. The winners were chosen for “telling it like it is” about life in their part of the country. The 38 ABC Heywire winners feature stories of courage, resilience and hope, including tales of escaping war in Afghanistan, keeping a local hockey club alive, caring for your community in the face of climate change and finding a language and treatment for mental illness. A big congratulations to local winners, Veejay from Shark Bay and Emma from Geraldton. Listen to their stories by clicking on the links below:
