Stand up, speak up, don’t give up the fight.

A team of volunteers recorded the track at ABC Studios in September, 2025. The song was originally conceived by Dr Gillian Eastgate to raise awareness about increasing need during the cost of living and housing affordability crisis. The project was directed by Stan Ghys, who assembled the choir from singers across Australia, with a group of budding composers from a Festival Of Voices songwriting workshop, Paul Jarman refining the composition and conducting the choir, Suze Pratten and Lucy Armstrong assisting with rehearsals, Paul Jarman and Stewart Peters (Soundshed Music) being the musicians and producing the final mix.

Building hope and possibility for all

Every action takes us closer to ending homelessness.
Right now, there are over 122,000 people experiencing homelessness in Australia.

Mission Australia believes a person’s circumstances shouldn’t define their future and that given the right support, everyone can reach their full potential.
