Sage Hill Family and Friends Tasmania
The Sage Hill Family and Friends Service was established in North and North West Tasmania in 2008. The Service is modelled on the Aspire Sage Hill Carers Service in Victoria and provides support, advice and advocacy to carers of people with a mental illness.
The Service aims to promote resilience and coping skills, increase understanding of mental health issues, improve the health and wellbeing of the carer, reduce stress and boost opportunities for time out and socialisation. Participants are encouraged to take an active role in service delivery and direction and have input into any new projects proposed in each region to ensure the service remains relevant and meets carer needs.
The Sage Hill Service also serves to improve awareness of mental illness through general community education. The Service has a range of resources and information that may be of assistance to carers. To access these, please contact your local office.
For further information about this service and the referral process please contact your nearest office.
Entrance to the Sage Hill office in Launceston is via Frederick Street.
