About Time Media acknowledges the traditional owners of the lands across Australia and particularly acknowledges the Wurundjeri people of the Kulin nation, traditional owners of the land on which About Time Media is based.

We pay deep respect to Elders past and present, and all families of those who have lost loved ones in prison.
