No matter your age, everyone has an opinion—including your Old Mate.

Whether it's about the arts, sport, politics, or social issues, giving your Old Mate the opportunity to share their thoughts helps stimulate critical thought, and helps their improve self-esteem. That feeling of value and contribution is enhanced if they're provided with a platform to broadcast their views.

Most publications, whether it's your local council update or international news-sites have sections where the public can write-in and share their thoughts and feelings.
