Post your stories
to their door.
Literally.
A beautiful printed newsletter with your photos, updates, and all the moments they've been missing — ready to send whenever you are.
3 minutes from you = the best thing in their letterbox all month.
Something they'll show everyone
Real stories, passed hand to hand
A few minutes of talking
Share what's been happening — no typing, no formatting, no fuss
We make it beautiful
Gorgeous newsletter with photos, stories, even puzzles and weather
They hold it in their hands
Real, printed mail arrives at their door. Something they'll keep forever.
A free big-print puzzle pack to send your mum or dad.
Ten crosswords, word searches and sudoku made for older eyes. It's also a quiet experiment: if they do the lot and ask for more, that's your answer about the newsletter.
I'll send the pack and, later, the occasional note about Family Press. Unsubscribe any time, no hard feelings.

They're not on social media. So they're missing everything.
First steps. School concerts. Birthday parties. Sunday barbecues. Your life is documented in Stories/reels and group chats — but there's always someone missing out who can't see any of it.
They don't have Instagram, Facebook, or WhatsApp
Phone calls are lovely but the photos and details get lost
You mean to send more updates — but life gets in the way
Meanwhile, they're quietly missing out on the family they love
“Last time I visited Mum she was visibly upset because she says she never sees what's happening with the family anymore — she felt completely left out. I built Family Press so no one's mum or dad has to feel that way.”
— Jane, Founder of Family Press

Mum can't see this.
Everyone saw it. Except the people who matter most.

Parents in Aged Care
Staff tell us the newsletter is the highlight of the week. Residents read it cover to cover, then proudly show every visitor.
Grandparents Without Tech
No smartphone, no social media, no problem. The newsletter arrives in the post — beautifully printed with photos they've never seen before.
Busy Adult Children
Talk, drop in a few photos from your phone — and they think you spent all weekend putting it together.
I picture Mum opening that envelope and sitting down with her morning tea to read through it. Seeing the photos, catching up on everyone. That simple moment — that's the whole reason I built this.
Jane is a retired graphic designer — she and her family are originally from the UK, now living on the Sunshine Coast in Queensland. With family still in England and parents in their eighties living in their own home, she knows firsthand what it feels like when distance — or simply a generation gap with technology — gets in the way.
