Neighbour Day 2026 | Full Interview with Costa Georgiadis (Gardening Australia) by Radio Goolarri published on 2026-03-30T02:24:28Z In a world that’s never been more connected, more Australians than ever are feeling lonely. This Sunday (March 29) is Neighbour Day — a national call to reconnect with the people around us and build stronger, more supportive communities. In this full-length conversation, Matty J from Radio Goolarri sits down with Costa Georgiadis — host of Gardening Australia and long-time Neighbour Day Ambassador — for a warm, honest, and practical chat about connection, community, and what it really means to belong. 💬 One in four Australians report feeling lonely 💬 Among young adults, it’s closer to one in three Costa shares: The powerful story that inspired his involvement in Neighbour Day How modern life and technology are quietly disconnecting us Why small, everyday interactions matter more than big gestures Simple, practical ways to get to know your neighbours How connection builds over time — and why it’s worth the effort From sharing homegrown food to simply saying hello, this conversation is a reminder that community doesn’t just happen — it’s something we create together. As Costa puts it: “We are a neighbour every day. It’s not just one Sunday in March.” 🌱 Neighbour Day 2026 Theme: Belonging Every Day 👉 Find ideas and get involved: https://neighbourseveryday.org 🎙️ Interview with Matty J 📻 Radio Goolarri — Broome / Kimberley
