Welcome to Listen To Older Voices, a program produced Rob Greaves for Wesley Mission Victoria and podcast through the Toorak Times. Listen To Older Voices [LTOV] presents the stories, views and opinions of our older citizens. It is predominantly in a life & times format, with interviewees reflecting upon their lives from earliest memories. We provide a mix of Life & Times Stories from everyday Australians through to members of the Music/ Arts Community
However, an underlying principal of the program is to promote the concept of positive ageing, reinforcing the principle that older people have & continue to make a valuable contribution to both their local & wider community. Alice Harris was 85 years of age when she was originally interviewed in October of 2005. I interviewed her in the nursing home that she was a resident in. In this single episodic program Alice takes us through from her earliest memories, through her formative years, into her teen years and on through to her meeting her husband to be Bill.
Alice is one of those wonderful Australian’s whose hard work and effort has made this country exactly what it is today and the stories of her experiences will amaze and bring smiles to your face.
