About Mental Health Carers NSW

Mental Health Carers NSW (MHCN, formerly ‘Arafmi NSW’) is a community-based, non-government organisation that provides systemic advocacy, education, and a local service referral telephone helpline for the carers, family and friends of those experiencing mental illness across NSW. There are currently 2.8 million unpaid carers in Australia, 39% of whom provide more than 40 hours of care per week. Due to the demands of their full-time caring role, carers are at a high risk for developing mental health issues.

About WayAhead: Mental Health Association of NSW

WayAhead – Mental Health Association NSW (WayAhead) plays a vital role in the development of mental health initiatives which increase community awareness and knowledge of mental health issues. With the support of our Board, staff, members, and volunteers and students, we strive towards a community that embraces and maintains mental, social and emotional wellbeing for all people and we work towards a society free from prejudice and discrimination against people living with mental illness.
