Transcript: Hi, how are you? This is to let you know that Deaf Victoria’s Life Skills Workshop is soon coming up on Thursday. This session will be about online safety, for example, using Facebook, Instagram and WhatsApp to make sure that they're safe: who can see those posts and how can you change the settings for safety? If someone targeted with harassment or bullying, how can you report this?
We're going to cover things like this on Thursday, the 5th of November, 10-11:30. I think it's a really important topic for us to discuss and I'm excited for it. Thank you. Bye-bye.

Transcript: Deaf Victoria will host a presentation about women's cervical cancer screening.This is a collaboration between two organisations: Women with Disabilities Victoria and Cancer Council. They will explain what cervical screening involves and its importance in reducing the risk of cervical cancer. This information is for women aged 25 to 74. The old name for this test was the Pap smear, which is now called cervical screening. Come along to learn more about why it is important and about accessibility when attending different testing locations. There is also now a home screening option, which means you can do the test yourself at home. We will talk about how to access this option. It's also an opportunity to come and ask any questions you may have about the test. The presentation will take place on Wednesday 18 November, from 12:30 pm to 2:00 pm. Light refreshments and Auslan interpreters will be provided. You will need to RSVP. Please see the link in the description. The event will be held at the Deaf Victoria office at Ross House, Level 3.
