We still have plenty of spaces for our webinar this week. Feel free to share.

We are delighted to let you know we have a special webinar for International Multiple Birth Awareness Week 2025 which is taking place 3-9 November.
Our speaker will be author Dr Elizabeth A. Stewart a mother of adult twin sons, sociology professor and an expert in twin studies. She is a perfect fit for the theme of IMBAW 2025 - Multiples for Life. Her most recent book is Parenting Twins: the adventure begins. She has authored two other books on twins — Exploring twins: a social analysis of twinship and Twin Tales: Hand in hand across the world. This new book builds on these previous publications but is tailored for a more general audience and is very readable. By bringing together her personal experience and her academic expertise, she provides insights into various aspects of being a twin and the impacts on the family.
Join us on Wednesday 5th November at 10 am UK time (you can find your local time using this time converter: https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/converter.html

👉Help needed from same-sex Fraternal Twins | $250 gift cards to be won👈
All eligible TRA members aged 18-65 have been invited to participate in the Colour Game study. Researchers need more of our very valuable same-sex, non-identical twins to determine whether the preference for colours, colour combinations, and the decision-making strategies used to reveal these preferences, are determined by genes, experience, or a combination of both.

Go into the running to win a $250 gift card each, if you and your twin participate in this study. Learn more at https://bit.ly/colour-game-study
Check your email for your invitation or email info@twins.org.au for it to be resent.
