We would like to inform you of significant changes to the McAuley Outreach Services, as part of Mercy Services.
The final operational day for McAuley Outreach Services under Mercy Services will be 30 April 2025.
Unfortunately, this also means that without McAuley Outreach Services, Mercy Services is unable to continue supporting the Community Houses, Brighton and Bronte Houses.
We are dedicated to providing support during this transition for existing clients of McAuley Outreach Services.
Counsellors will be in touch with their clients to arrange dedicated time to discuss transition plans and alternative services.
