The Traveller’s Aid Society of Victoria was formed in 1916, as increasing numbers of women were beginning to travel into the city of Melbourne from interstate and rural Victoria. Its aim was simple: to provide support and protection for women travellers. Whether journeying to Melbourne for the first time, needing assistance with children, or coming to grips with life in the city, Travellers Aid was there to help at their point of need – and it has been ever since.
Commissioned to commemorate the centenary of Travellers Aid, We Are All Travellers was launched at Government House in August 2016 by Judge Anthony Howard. Accompanying the book was a travelling exhibition that visited Travellers Aid locations around Victoria.
