We recognise the special requirements of healthcare, emergency relief and social support service organisations and the important role they play in supporting our public health and welfare systems. This includes engaging in continuing client support activities, raising awareness of social and health needs and advocating for various cultural groups and their well-being. Firmly based within communities, and often dependent upon funding and voluntary help at a community level, your organisations need to be especially sensitive to people, their cultures and their health and well-being concerns and must also be able to clearly demonstrate the beneficial impact of your activities.
