About Helping Hands Australia

Helping Hands Australia is a community-focused charity established to support Narrabri Shire residents who need assistance with the out-of-pocket costs of specialist medical care.


Founded by local GP and Narrabri Shire Councillor Dr Navin Erathnage, the charity has been created as a practical way to give back to the local community and help reduce financial barriers to care.
