Spring 2023: Your generosity means there’s always help on the line for Australians in crisis

Read the latest issue of Wesley Impact! news to learn more about the people you’ve helped and how their lives have changed through your generous support.

Spring is a time of renewal and growth – and that’s exactly what Sarah* experienced after calling Lifeline Sydney & Sutherland six years ago overwhelmed with thoughts of suicide. Now a volunteer Crisis Supporter, Sarah can’t bear the thought of others facing their darkest times alone.

In this edition of Wesley Impact! news, you’ll learn how one call allowed Sarah to realise the seriousness of her situation and how a listening ear saved her life. You’ll hear from Sue*, another volunteer Crisis Supporter, about how her transition from accidental counsellor in a day spa to team leader at Lifeline Sydney & Sutherland has changed her life and saved countless more.

You’ll also share in Lucy’s story of rebirth, from domestic violence and instability to financial freedom, education and employment, with the support of Wesley Mission. Plus, learn how our Welcome Ride is helping refugees and migrants connect with their community across Newcastle, why George* left a gift to Wesley Mission in his Will and how you can too.

Wesley Mission works to unlock the potential of individuals, families and communities to build a brighter future for all – but it’s only possible with your continued support. Your kindness and compassion mean we can be there for Australians in crisis for as long as it takes to recover, because we believe every life matters
