From 8am – 11am on Saturday 29 February, join leading Australian not-for-profit, Orange Sky and learn how you can positively connect friends in need through free laundry, warm showers and genuine conversation.

You may recognise their iconic orange vans from local communities across the country – but come Thursday 27 February, Don (a hybrid van with two huge washing machines, two dryers and a warm shower) will call the Northern Rivers his home.

Love a good chat? Orange Sky is calling on community-minded men and women to volunteer and help positively connect the 1,500 people experiencing homelessness across the Northern Rivers. All it takes is a few hours a fortnight and non-judgemental conversation to make a huge difference.

Celebrating the region’s first free mobile laundry and shower service for people doing it tough is easy! Orange Sky is encouraging local businesses to go #OrangeForOrangeSky come Thursday 27 February. Big or small, add a splash of orange to your shopfront, clothing, product or services – and spark genuine conversation!

During the reign of Queen Victoria, over 11m of her subjects left the UK in search of a better life in distant lands.  This mass emigration, both voluntary and forced, was crucial in the development of countries such as Australia and NZ.  Many paintings and drawings document this experience of social and economic change – leaving home and family to the harsh realities of life in a new world.

Writer, lecturer, curator and broadcaster, Paul is a familiar face on the BBC’s Antiques Roadshow, where he has been a member of the team of experts for over 25 years. He specialises in the art, architecture and design of the 19th and 20th centuries, but has many interests and enthusiasms outside this area of expertise, some of which are reflected in the lectures he is offering. Paul has lectured to every ADFAS society in Australia and New Zealand during previous visits.
