Did you know Caboolture now has a welcoming, private, friendly space committed to providing free health and related services to women? 

Wellspring Women and Girls Health Hub opened in Caboolture earlier this year, thanks to the not-for-profit organisation Micah Projects and funding from Queensland Health, and makes healthcare more accessible to all women and girls in our community.

Full Support for Women

The Hub offers walk-in access to a wide range of services, including general medical, child and family health support, sexual and reproductive health, pain management, specialised support for women experiencing domestic or sexual violence, and support for women facing homelessness or housing instability. 

The multidisciplinary team of nurse practitioners, registered nurses, and specialists provides compassionate, non-judgmental care and invites you to meet them at a free community lunch held every Wednesday. 

Micah Projects CEO Karyn Walsh said she encouraged women to attend the community lunch to meet the staff and check out all the services on offer. 

“It’s a great way to connect and learn about what we do,” she said. 

“The doors are open! We are happy with the progress made and look forward to welcoming more women.” 

To book, phone 5294 9670 or simply walk in.
