Community Wellbeing Partnerships | Sydney & NSW | Sydney NSW
Connect community wellbeing capability with school and local needs through safer, evidence-aware partnerships across Sydney and NSW. Get practical next steps.
Community organisations can strengthen wellbeing when their local knowledge and relationships connect to a clearly defined need. Shelby’s pilot explores how schools, councils, not-for-profits and community providers can describe capability, coordinate delivery and protect sensitive demand while avoiding duplicated or poorly matched activity.
Local does not automatically mean suitable
Proximity helps, but fit also depends on purpose, cohort, safeguarding, delivery capacity and how a partnership integrates with the school’s existing plan.

Frequently asked questions
Who can register community partnership interest?
Councils, not-for-profits, community groups, service organisations and providers can share relevant capability for future research or pilots.
Are opportunities public?
No. School demand remains private by default and is disclosed only as needed through an authorised process.
Is the pilot limited to the Northern Beaches?
The first focus is Sydney’s Northern Beaches, while organisations elsewhere in NSW and Australia may register future interest.
