The Whittlesea Mental Health and Wellbeing Local is a new service that supports Victorians aged 26 years and over to get mental health and wellbeing treatment, care and support closer to home. 

All support is free, and you do not need a referral from your doctor to access help. 

Services will focus on listening to you and understanding your concerns so they can work with you and, if you are comfortable, your family, carers and supporters, to design a care plan that meets your goals and preferences.

This may involve connecting you to other health and social services if you need them. 

The most important thing is that the Whittlesea Mental Health and Wellbeing Local is a safe space for all people from all backgrounds 

For free support in Whittlesea call 1800 571 145, or for further information visit betterhealth.vic.gov.au/mhwlocal 

Working together to support the community 

The Whittlesea Mental Health and Wellbeing Local is delivered in partnership with Uniting Vic Tas, Drummond Street Services and the Victorian Aboriginal Health Service.
