Annual Report

Each year, our Annual Report details our achievements, outcomes and future plans to support the health and wellbeing of country children, families and communities.

We help connect country kids to the vital developmental, behavioural, and mental health services they need to reach their full potential.

In FY25, Royal Far West delivered 39,015 appointments, supported 424 schools and early learning centres, and reached families in 387 postcodes, including 25% Indigenous clients.
Our impact spans support for 3,967 children and 3,297 parents and carers, and ripples out to 21,628 students and school support staff through improved classroom outcomes where we work in a whole of school service model.

With 930 telecare sessions weekly, 698 parent and educator workshops, and 2,347 days of residential care, we’re bridging gaps for rural and remote communities – where 42% of clients live in small rural towns.

With the support of our steadfast partners, donors and supporters, we are working towards our ultimate ambition: that every country child has access to the developmental services they need to support their early development and enrich their lives.

“Honestly, that first visit to Royal Far West was amazing. We’d been trying for over six years to get a diagnosis and help for Ginny, and after a week in Manly, not only did we have a diagnosis, but we also started to see a way forward and a brighter future for Ginny. It was such a relief to finally have the first piece of the puzzle.””
