Part of the Flood Wellbeing and Disaster Program 2025 grants.
The Gympie and District Women’s Health Group (GWHC) is using the Flood Wellbeing and Resilience Grant to enhance the mental health and wellbeing of women in rural Gympie. They currently offer various mental health services, including linking clients with sustainable non-clinical support like community groups and networks to improve their mental health, wellbeing, and resilience.
By establishing community hubs in five rural towns within the Gympie region, they aim to ensure that no client in the target area needs to travel more than an hour round trip for face-to-face mental health support. Additionally, all women in the target area will be able to access GWHC’s online sessions from home or nearby community hubs.
Moreover, this project seeks to boost GWHC’s ability to provide mental health support to specific groups during and after disasters.
