Saddling up to raise awareness of young carers
Every day Rod Sullivan saddles up to pump out the kilometres, as part of his training for the ride of his life.
We’re getting out there
Wellways participants, staff and friends gathered earlier this month for the Pride March as part of the fifth Midsumma Carnival in Melbourne, and at the Geelong Pride March Rally in Geelong, which Wellways sponsored.
Productivity Commission mental health inquiry
Poor mental health has an enormous impact on people’s lives. As we know, it effects not just individuals, but carers, families and workplaces. Of course, this all happens at the community level.
An eventful time ahead
Is it conference season or is there a lot happening in the mental health sector? We’ve got all the latest here
New service fills gap
In Griffith, the Murrumbidgee Primary Health Network (MPHN) and Wellways Australia officially launch “Well Connected”; a new psychosocial support program available throughout the Murrumbidgee region of New South Wales for people with severe mental illness.
Our services over the holidays
Wellways wishes you a wonderful, safe and relaxing festive season.
New NDIS pricing tier
A new pricing tier for self-care, social and recreational support for participants with "very complex" support needs has been introduced into the National Disability Insurance Scheme. This adds 10 percent to the rate, a move welcomed as a step in the right direction by Wellways.
More support in Murrumbidgee
Wellways has won a three-year contract to support people with severe mental illness through the Murrumbidgee Primary Health Network (MPHN). Wellways already provides suicide support and prevention programs across the region of New South Wales.
Celebrating our achievements
This year Wellways reached several impressive milestones. As the National Disability Insurance Scheme continues to roll out we now have 1594 participants across eastern Australia.
