Members: $12 Non-members: $17 Janice Standen, WA Senior Australian of the Year 2022 and President of the volunteer-run charity Grandparents Rearing Grandchildren WA. She advocates passionately for grandparent carers, a crucial but often ignored community in Australia. In 2013, Jan’s three grandchildren came to live with her, so she knows the day-to-day battles that grandparents experience as primary carers. She will talk about her experiences and the changes she has helped to bring about for those in this often forgotten role.
