This episode was broadcast 10th of April 2025. We feature LIVE readings of poems from the members of the Western Union Writers, on the occasion of their 40th year celebrations.  Western Union Writers (Werribee) have been meeting as a writing group for 40 years in May this year; one of the longest running groups with continuous members in Victoria, if not Australia. They support local writers and writing in the western suburbs, facilitate creative writing events and stimulate creative written and literary expression. If you are interested in joining this group of buying their anthologies, please contact coordinator helencerne@bigpond.com.
