4th August 2026

Funding for The WELL Collaborative has now ended, and as a result we are pausing progress for the time being while we explore future opportunities to continue or build on this work. 

This means that activities connected with The WELL Collaborative won’t be progressing right now, but it isn’t a closing of the door. We remain committed to the values and goals that shaped the project and will share updates if new pathways or opportunities emerge.

The WELL Collaborative has been built through strong relationships, shared learning, and the contributions of people with lived experience, practitioners, and partner organisations. 

We’re very proud of what has been achieved so far and deeply grateful to everyone who has given their time, insights, and energy to the work.

We also recognise that this update may raise questions or concerns, particularly for people who feel a personal connection to the issues the project has been focused on. 

Our community includes both consumers and practitioners, and we want to be clear that your perspectives continue to matter to us. If you’re unsure about what this pause means, concerned about the impact of the project not continuing right now, or would simply like to talk things through, please do get in touch. 

Please contact us at engagement@hconc.org.au as The WELL Collaborative mailbox will no longer be regularly monitored. 

We’re also open to hearing from people who may have ideas about how we could work together in the future, or who are interested in supporting the continuation or evolution of this work in other ways.

Thank you for being part of The WELL Collaborative community. We appreciate your ongoing interest, care, and commitment, and we’ll keep you informed as things evolve.
