The organisations participating are, Koori Pride Network, OUTintheOPEN Festival Shepparton (Goulburn Valley Pride Inc.), Mallee Pride, Gippsland Pride Initiative, Wimmera Pride Project, Geelong Rainbow Festival (Geelong Rainbow Inc), Ballarat Frolic Festival, Castlemaine Pride, Trans and Gender Diverse Bendigo and Beyond, ChillOut Festival (Daylesford) and Thorne Harbour Country (part of Thorne Harbour Health) who will program health and wellbeing content with the event live-streamed on Facebook by LaNCE TV from 12-6pm AEST on Saturday 20th June – Each festival is programming content to highlight local artists and community members.

LEARN MORE Thursday 28th May is the first LGBTI Domestic Violence Awareness Day, and Rach and Dean spoke to LGBTI Domestic Violence advocate Ben Bjarnesen about why he advocated for this day, and why we need not stick our heads in the clouds when it comes to violence in our communities.


 


Recent studies have demonstrated that up to 62% of LGBTIQ+ people have experienced DV in their relationships, yet awareness of the issue and reporting rates are still incredibly low. The “Sorting it Out” report recently found that as few as 5.3% of victims were reporting domestic violence to Police.


 


DV can come in many forms, but we need to keep in the forefront of our minds that everyone deserves a life free from violence and abuse. Everyone needs support when asking for help, whether that be someone to talk to or helping to find the right support service they need.


 


No victim of DV should feel invisible.


 


We are here for you, we believe you, and the more we create a space for people to share their stories and experiences we shine a light on the problem. Stretching out a hand or a shoulder of support to those that need it.


 


#ImHereforYou


 


If you are unsure what to do and don’t know who to talk to, you can reach out to Switchboard Victoria or QLife Australia who are always here to help.

When he was on Australia’s Got Talent, his sexuality was used narrative and gimmick, whether he was ready for it or not, but having a space like JOY that supports LGBTI artists is so important, because we understand that our communities identities aren’t just fodder for attention on mainstream media.
Greg also joined us for a special Live Lounge with a prerecorded cover of Britney Spears ‘Hit Me Baby One More Time’.
Have you heard about our Radiothon challenge?
Breakfast & Drive are running a tally of how many memberships they can get during Radiothon, and the losers have to sing Whitney Houstons ‘I will always love you’ but instead sing ‘I will always love JOY’ outside and record it … but that’s hardly a challenge for Dean, so he is upping his game!
If we get 50 memberships during MAD Wednesdays Radiothon shows Dean will. wax his butthole and film it for his humiliation and your entertainment! What better way to support JOY, humiliate Dean and beat The Murphys at the same time than to become a member today.
During this weeks show they raised $686 in donations and 16 memberships – only 34 more to go!

JOY Radiothon is here, and some of you may have noticed it’s happening earlier than usual and yes, the timing is less than ideal but… to be perfectly frank we have to go ahead with our campaign during this time if we have any hope of staying on-air and afloat during these uncertain times.
From our total income sources every year Radiothon typically makes up around 30%. We know that less than 1% of our 589,000 listeners support us financially ..and if every listener donated the price of a cup of coffee during Radiothon we’d be able to keep the station running for 2 years!
Also if you would like to donate to JOY this Radiothon, why not do it during our double donation hour from 7-9am moon Friday May First, as Patrons Gary & Geoffrey match every cent donated dollar for dollar during those times.
