The Australian Government is investing $550 million into services for carers.

New services include face to face counselling, planning assistance and financial packages.

If you support a family member or friend who has a disability, mental health condition, chronic health condition, terminal illness, or is frail aged, then these free services are for you.

Wellways is your first point of contact for Carer Gateway services in Queensland, South West Sydney and Nepean Blue Mountains.

Have any concerns?

We will do our best to engage with all current providers, their employees and carers throughout the transition period, but issues can occur. If you have a concern about the transition from existing carer services to the new Carer Gateway and the service delivery model, it is important that you talk about it. 

If you are in Queensland or the New South Wales areas of South West Sydney and Nepean Blue Mountains, any concerns can be made to Wellways by phoning: 1300 111 400 or emailing carergatewayservices@wellways.org.
