Programs

People, community groups and organisations all over Queensland are proving age is no barrier. We’re inviting Queenslanders to submit inspiring stories that celebrate the diverse capabilities and contributions of older people and help challenge stereotypes of ageing.

For a chance to win $1000, share a story that we could develop into a short film as part of our B.OLD 2020: be B.OLDer series. We are looking for stories about older Queenslanders who are active and engaged in community life as volunteers, athletes, artists, entrepreneurs or employees.

10 stories will be selected by a judging panel. Our production teams will then plan and coordinate filming, which will take place between April and June 2020. The resulting short film series — B.OLD 2020: be B.OLDer — will be screened around the state as part of Seniors Month in August 2020.

10 Vehicle Registration via direct debit

Queenslanders can pay their vehicle registration renewals more easily with a new onemonth term now available via direct debit.

Nearly one in five drivers told the Department of Transport and Main Roads (Queensland) that they’d prefer monthly registration installments, so they have made it happen.

Choose from one, three, six or 12-month registration options when using direct debit.
