The Revd Chris Thomason, Chaplain

Anglicare WA delivers services across Western Australia. We have a large presence in the North-West including Kununurra, Karratha, Broome, Hedland, Balgo and we reach many of the surrounding communities.

If you head east you will find us in Kalgoorlie and out in the desert communities and towns. We are also in the South-West and Great Southern in places like Bunbury, Katanning, Collie, Albany and others.

We have a number of sites in the Perth metropolitan area too.

Our public perception surveys tell us that most people know Anglicare WA exists, but very few know what we do.

At Anglicare WA we believe in a just and fair Western Australia where everyone can thrive. We work with people and communities in need to help them achieve positive outcomes in their lives. We also challenge barriers to thriving, however for now let’s focus on the services we provide.

If you look at this list, you will see the range of services we provide. It is a very long list with one thing in common, to provide support and drive positive outcomes. We do not offer all of our services at every location however, we are proud of the fact that if we can’t offer the support people need, we know someone who can.

Right now, demand for each and every one of these services is high, and for many at levels we have never seen before. While many of our services are funded by grants and government contracts, they cannot meet demand. We rely on support from our community and corporate partners as well as donations to make sure we can deliver these services.

We currently have two campaigns seeking to raise much needed funds. Our 2024 Spring Appeal is raising funds to address youth homelessness and the Central Park Plunge, where almost 50 people have signed up to abseil down the Central Park tower in the Perth CBD and to raise valuable funds along the way.

The money raised from the sponsorship of the plunges will be used to assist delivering vital services across Anglicare WA.

If you have the capacity to give you can help the Spring Appeal here or sponsor a Plunger here. Every little bit helps.
