    WE ARE WEST – LOOKING FOR STORIES IN TIMES OF CHANGE

    Date:

    We Are WEST is the video story-telling project that aims to capture, preserve and celebrate life in the western suburbs of Melbourne. These stories could be about people, places, activities, a creative project, a business or our history. By sharing the common threads of our identity, we aim to create a sense of unity and pride in who we are individually and as a collection.

    Everyone is grappling with the changes Covid19 has brought and We Are West is looking to record this change in process and document what is happening.

    If you know of any inspirational, interesting or downright real stories that we can connect with, please get in contact and hopefully we can produce a video on that story.

    Stay safe fellow Westies

    Our content is a labour of love, crafted by dedicated volunteers who are passionate about the west. We encourage submissions from our community, particularly stories about your own experiences, family history, local issues, your suburb, community events, local history, human interest stories, food, the arts, and environmental matters. Below are articles created by community contributors. You can find their names in the bylines.

    It's hard to find local stories because major news suppliers have economised by cutting local journalism. In addition, social media algorithms mean we have to work doubly hard to be seen.

    If you loved reading this article please consider donating to the Westsider. Support from you gives local writers an outlet and ensures an independent voice can be found in the west.

    If you're a business or community group, consider advertising in print or online, or becoming a community partner.
