Link Wentworth believes everyone has a right to a safe and secure home. A place where you can grow, connect with the community and build brighter futures that create positive change. Through sustainable and ongoing growth, we will proactively advocate for the federal and state governments to invest in more social and affordable housing. With COVID-19 exacerbating the housing crisis, housing soluti

Our combined entity aims to partner with government, property developers and financiers to fund more social and affordable housing, including leveraging COVID-19 stimulus programs, to help ensure more people do not fall into poverty and homelessness. With 6,400 homes, 10,000 residents and over 200 staff, we are committed to delivering services that help people facing housing stress. Using decades of community driven experience, our work engages the full spectrum of housing need from homelessness services, to social, disability and affordable housing.

Link Wentworth is proud to support Community Housing Industry Association NSW's 'Community Made' campaign, showcasing the importance of Community Housing Providers like us.

Thank you to all the residents who shared their housing story for this series. Especially to our resident Lynne, who has long been a generous and thoughtful advocate for community housing.

Community Housing Providers are not-for-profit organisations that reinvest every dollar back into homes, services and communities. As this video shows, CHPs exist to help people, not make a profit 👏

And that's a wrap on Home Sweet 2026 🙌

As you can hear from those who took part, Home Sweet is an experience that stays with you long after the night is over.

On Saturday morning, more than 140 sleepees woke after a night spent out in the cold to raise vital funds and awareness for people experiencing homelessness and housing stress.

A big thank you to Campos Coffee for helping everyone start the day with a much-needed coffee, Mama Lana's Community Foundation for providing breakfast, Penrith Yoga Studio for leading a morning yoga session, and TODAY for helping shine a spotlight on the importance of this event.

As participants reflected on the night, there was a shared understanding that while Home Sweet offers a glimpse into the challenges of sleeping outdoors, it can never truly replicate the realities faced by people experiencing homelessness and housing stress. For many of us, a warm shower, a comfortable bed and the support of loved ones awaited at home. For many others, they do not.

A 5% increase in rough sleeping over the past year, is an indicator that the need for action has never been greater. Homelessness is a complex issue that requires a coordinated response from homelessness services, housing providers, government, and the private sector.

Home Sweet brings all these groups together, united by a shared determination to create real change for people facing homelessness and housing stress.
There's still time to support Home Sweet and help make a difference. Donations remain open until the end of the month at https://home-sweet.linkwentworth.org.au/donate

On Friday night, over 140 people braved the cold and rolled out their sleeping bags to raise funds and awareness for people facing homelessness and housing stress. A very big THANK YOU to everyone who supported Home Sweet and helped make the night such a success.
Thank you to Penrith Community Kitchen who made sure everyone was fed with delicious soup and pasta. Thank you to TOTS Blanket Challenge for making sure everyone was warm. And thank you to every sponsor, fundraiser, donor and sleepee, who made the night possible.

Funds raised will be split evenly between Youth Services, Birribee Housing and Link Wentworth’s Scholarship program. Each organisation shared the life-changing impact these funds will have on people in our communities.
Together we have raised over $252,000 for people in our communities doing it tough.

There is still time to support Home Sweet. Donations are open until the end of the month at https://home-sweet.linkwentworth.org.au/donate

With permission from Yvonne Weldon on behalf of the Weldon family, we are excited to announce a new Scholarship within the Link Wentworth Scholarships Program. The Aunty Ann Weldon Legacy Scholarship recognises Aunty Ann’s profound legacy as a human rights activist, community ambassador and leader.

This scholarship will annually award two First Nations Link Wentworth residents a grant of $2,000.

Applications are invited for any project, initiative, course or equipment that supports a resident’s learning, ability to engage, or extends their potential.

If you are an Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander Link Wentworth resident, we invite you to apply! You can also apply for another Scholarship category, but only one scholarship per person per year will be awarded.

Applications close 31 August 2026 (same date as other categories).
