Little Voices is a website where kids aged 10-18 can input their preferences on who stays with who, when they want to stay and how they feel about the divorce. There will also be questions and surveys to let parents and the family court understand how they feel.

Our solution is to create an app called ‘My Daily Bear’ which helps people stick with their habits and routines. This will help young people stay organised and on top of things. In our app there is a character called Mr. Bear who helps track your progress with you and makes chores and routines seem more enjoyable.

Our solution was to create Ethical Experiences!

This would focus on Community Hubs spread around Victoria that would have Different activities each week. Such as Sewing, Painting and Baking. It will cost around $10 per person to attend these events.

Profits would go to related charities Eg- The Sewing classes would make teddies that go to refugee children.

We have also made some prototype posters for some ideas of the classes we would be offering for example some social runs, painting, sewing and baking classes.
