You don’t have to be a rock star, social influencer or A-list celebrity (if you are that’s cool too!) to make a positive difference in your local community or the world at large. Every day, everyday people just like you and me are rising above the confines of their own individual concerns, working toward the greater concerns of all humanity. We want to celebrate these people, and that’s why we’ve developed the Citizen Creator section.
If you have a story or experience that you’d like to share, either about yourself or someone you know who is living beyond self and making the world a better place, we would love to hear from you! Check out our submission and editorial guidelines to share your story.

Thursday, Jan 6th, 2022 - My username on social media is regularly BHH03. Why? Because it’s three of my four initials and the year I met my wife, Gemma. I class that as the year I became the person I am today but if I look a little harder, I realise that it’s actually the first time I had someone truly see me and love each and every part of who I am.Read More »
Monday, Jan 3rd, 2022 - I would be friendly with people, but very few crossed the line into anything more than that, and the couple of people that did, had come along at times in my life when, in hindsight, I’d needed them and hadn’t known it.

Sunday, Jan 2nd, 2022 - If you were to ask me how I would define a community this is what I would say: A group of people with similar goals, views and interests coming together as a collective. I joined Create Change to meet new people and to find people who related to my story.Read More »
Thursday, Dec 23rd, 2021 - My chosen family means so much to me. They love me for me and are there to support me through anything. I found my chosen family only after I accepted who I was and left home.Read More »
