The Water Well Project

The Water Well Project is an award winning not-for-profit charity led by volunteers and healthcare professionals, founded in 2011.

We aim to improve the health and wellbeing of individuals and communities from migrant, refugee, or asylum seeker backgrounds through health education.

Health literacy empowers you with the knowledge, skills, and motivation to improve your physical and mental health and wellbeing!

Our sessions aim to be engaging, interactive and culturally appropriate.

Online Sessions Available

COVID-19 restrictions and lockdowns have not stopped The Water Well Project’s health education sessions. If anything, it is even more important that timely and accurate health education is provided to communities. Since March 2020, we have successfully facilitated over 200 online education sessions!

The Water Well Project is a proud finalist for the HESTA Impact Organisation of the Year 2021 and the HESTA Excellence Awards 2021
