Mind Ed Margaret River

Mind-Ed Margaret River is your local hub for mental health promotion, prevention, wellbeing education, advocacy, and community connection in the Augusta Margaret River region of Western Australia’s South West. Based in Margaret River, they serve individuals, families, organisations, seniors, carers, and the broader community with a focus on making support accessible before things reach crisis point.

Their work includes curating and sharing local resources for mental health and wellbeing, running accredited programs like the Accidental Counsellor and Peer Support in Organisations, hosting free or low-cost events and workshops (such as seniors and carers groups, movement sessions, and soup kitchens), and spotlighting regional services, stories, and organisations that strengthen mental health. They emphasise community-building, lived experience recognition, and suicide prevention as a member of Suicide Prevention Australia, while paying respects to the Wadandi and Pibelmen people of the Noongar Nation as traditional custodians.

The vibe is supportive, inclusive, and grounded in the local landscape – celebrating diversity in bodies, genders, sexualities, and relationships, valuing unique journeys, and aiming to be the region’s easy-to-turn-to resource for meaningful help, education, and connection. It’s all about proactive wellbeing in a beautiful but sometimes isolating part of the South West, helping people navigate challenges through information, events, and advocacy rather than direct clinical care (they’re not a crisis service).

Proudly community-driven and regional, Mind-Ed stands out as a welcoming point of contact for mental health support and education in Margaret River, Augusta, and the surrounding South West – the go-to place that makes finding help, staying connected, and building resilience feel straightforward and local.

As the dedicated mental health promotion and wellbeing hub in the Augusta Margaret River area, Mind-Ed brings together resources, events, and stories to support thriving communities – a real local asset for anyone wanting to prioritise mental health in one of WA’s most scenic regions.
