The parents of this year's Gallipoli speech competition winner are desperate to hear their daughter speak at Anzac Cove that they've taken out a $12,000 loan to get there, but they won't be able to get into the event without tickets and the Government has been unable or unwilling to help. This man was almost forgotten. His medal hung on the wall for years but no one in his family knew his story. Until Caitlin Papuni-Mclellan researched him for her speech and found he was her mum's uncle who died in Gallipoli. And the benefits were sweet. It won her a national speech competition and earned her the privilege of delivering it at the Anzac Day dawn service at Gallipoli. Normally, the competition winner can take a parent, but not this time - the venue is full. Caitlin's parents are desperate to go. They say they've taken out a $12,000 loan to pay for flights and accommodation. But the passes have already been dished out. They were drawn out of a ballot before Caitlin won the competition, a ballot the family didn't enter because there was no need to go, until now. The former president of the Opotiki RSA has been writing to the government to help the family. But the government isn't budging. Caitlin's family have been told continued attempts to get to Anzac Cove will be futile. Raniera Harrison, Te Karere.
