Breaking barriers: Help shape the future of alcohol and other drug support in South Western Sydney

29 Jan 2025

But are AOD services easy to access and meeting the unique needs of the community in South Western Sydney?

South Western Sydney PHN (SWSPHN) is bringing together healthcare and service providers, those with lived experience of AOD use and the wider community to discuss service needs, gaps and priorities at our next series of Local Health Forums in April.

You’re invited to Breaking barriers: Help shape the future of alcohol and other drug support in South Western Sydney to explore what makes it difficult to access AOD services, what makes it easier to access services and identify solutions for enhancing the quality and use of local services, with a special focus on supporting priority population groups.

Local health forums

SWSPHN hosts Local Health Forums twice a year to focus on health topics important to people living in our community. Past forums have focused on topics including mental health, primary care workforce need and end-of-life planning.

Your input at these forums is vital to ensuring we understand our region’s health needs and gaps in services to ensure the delivery of quality healthcare to our community.

Come along and share your valuable insights. 

A two-course meal will be provided on the night.
