Derryn Hinch’s story shows the real risk for people living alone

This article is about Derryn Hinch lying on the floor for 12 hours after a fall — but for us, one question stood out: Who actually found him? The article doesn’t say — and that silence is telling.

Most of us who live alone don’t have staff coming and going. We don’t have daily visitors or neighbours with keys.

If something happens at home, it’s entirely possible no one would know — not just for hours, but for days. For most of us, we’d be found “when someone realises I’ve gone quiet” — which could be days. That’s the gap Solo Alert closes.

Twice-daily check-ins turn “no one will notice for days” into “someone will know today”. Calm, quiet, independence-first.

Hinch’s ordeal is confronting, but it’s also a reminder that independence is safest when we put simple, reliable structures around it — not surveillance, not intrusion, just reassurance that long stretches of silence won’t go unnoticed.
