Wellways wishes you a wonderful, safe and relaxing festive season.

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. 

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.

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.

A community mental health conference has heard that despite failings of the National Disability Insurance Scheme, it was vital to support the scheme.

Wellways is spearheading a gathering of local organisations on White Ribbon Day later this month.

Community art workshops are providing a creative space for people. It's not just for people living with mental health issues and disabilities, but for anyone who is interested.
