Get help
Call us Monday to Friday, 9am–4pm.
We believe in good for you
If you are experiencing financial hardship or are facing a crisis, contact us to find out how we can support you. We believe in good for you and want to see you get back on your feet.
Depending on your situation, and what we have available, we may be able to provide you with vouchers for food, fuel or electricity. We can also help with referrals to other support services such as addiction rehabilitation centres.
Access to the following services is at: 26 Jenolan Way, Merriwa.
Emergency relief
For all-year financial support, call us and a team member will have a compassionate conversation with you to understand your needs and let you know what help is available.
When you phone us, you may be told you're eligible for a voucher and directed to visit Doorways at Merriwa for collection on a Friday between 9am and 1pm.
When you come in, you’ll be able to enjoy our lounge room while you wait to collect your allocated support.
