Happy 50th birthday to us!🎉

To celebrate Anglicare WA’s milestone and our Giving Day fundraiser, our amazing new team member Sharon stepped up as the Katanning office champion in just her second week! 🙌 What an incredible way to start. Welcome to the team and thank you Sharon!🧡

The team also enjoyed a delicious morning tea (thank you, Sharon!), and exceeded their $500 fundraising goal 🎉Katanning may be a small town of just 4,000 people, but it’s full of big hearts🧡

A big thank you to the Anglican Community Fund, generous anonymous matched giving partners, and our generous community for supporting us during Giving Day! 🎂✨

We’re a small town with a big heart and when times get tough, we look out for each other 🧡

Right now, too many people in our region and right across WA are doing it hard, facing challenges like housing stress, financial pressure, and isolation.

This year is especially meaningful as Anglicare WA celebrates 50 years of supporting communities like ours. For five decades, people have come alongside us to make sure no one is left behind and together, we can continue that legacy💪

Funds raised through our Giving Day will be doubled thanks to our matched giving partners, and go towards helping individuals and families navigate tough times, regain stability, and plan for a stronger future 🫶

National Reconciliation Week 2026 kicked off today, and this year's theme is "All In."

So, we decided to ask around about what being 'All In' for reconciliation means to our staff in their day to day!

The 2026 Rental Affordability Snapshot (RAS) dropped today, and it’s confirming what many people already know:

💸Housing is unaffordable for the vast majority of people
🚫There simply aren’t enough rental properties available

Everyone deserves access to affordable and appropriate housing, regardless of their postcode🏘️

While recent State and Federal Government commitments are welcome, they are currently not meeting the scale of the challenge. This is where our housing policy proposals come into play📝

Get the full picture of WA’s rental landscape and find out the solutions we're proposing by reading the RAS here: https://www.anglicarewa.org.au/our-initiatives/research/rental-affordability-snapshot-ras
