Today I had the privilege of talking to Poppylillac (Poppy) from The Poppy Project. Poppy is the daughter of a 37 year now retired Queensland Police Officer growing up in a small town about 60km North of Townsville.

Poppy discusses the journey of being a First Responders family, and in particular the effects of the job and PTSD on the whole family.

In 2023 in grade 12, Poppy started "The Poppy Project", a support group that is for children and families of First Responders. With the intention of taking the program national, she needs support and funding to help get the ball rolling.

For more information on The Poppy Project, please head to their socials, or www.thepoppyproject.com.au

Please share this podcast with anyone you know who is a First Responder, or has family that is a First Responder....and give her the support she deserves
