Giving back to the community

Giving back is a key pillar of our values, it is part of our culture and a vital step in healing.

“I was pretty lost before joining the Yindyamarra Healing Men’s group. In and out of Wellington Correctional Centre, my family just wanted me to sort out my rehab. Jeff and the men made the difference, I could speak up and started to feel connected to something.”Member of Yindyamarra Healing Men’s Group and casual employee of Yindyamarra Landcare

  • Free Lawn Fridays

    For over two years, Free Lawn Fridays has been a key initiative of the Men's Healing group, providing a way for men to give back to the community. Rain or shine, the Yindyamarra Healing Men's group has organized a lottery to offer free lawn mowing services throughout Wellington. Call us for a yarn to get your lawn mowed as part of this community initiative.

"The Yindyamarra team has made a huge difference in my life. They help me keep my lawn tidy, but more importantly, they take the time to have a yarn and connect with us Elders."
