St Andrew's Wellbeing Centre

The Wellbeing Centre is the result of a shared vision: to create a calm, supportive sanctuary for our patients, their families and caregivers before, during and after treatment. It is a place to step away from the clinical environment, take a deep breath, and focus on emotional, practical and social wellbeing.

This Centre represents our commitment to holistic care, recognising that health is not just about treating the body, but also about nurturing the mind and supporting emotional wellbeing. Whether it is through workshops, informal conversations, or simply taking a moment to relax in one of our peaceful spaces, we hope the Wellbeing Centre makes a meaningful difference to everyone who walks through its doors.

The Centre was developed with the generous input of our patient community, whose insights and experiences helped shape every element of the offering, from the physical space to the programs we provide.

We opened to all St Andrew's cancer patients in July 2025, following an initial six month operations pilot. It is located in a purpose built space at 337 South Terrace, within our innovative new green healthcare precinct.

Membership is free for two years to all patients currently undergoing cancer care at St Andrew’s Hospital or the St Andrew’s Chemotherapy Suite. Your partner, carer or friend is also welcome to register with you. Programs are available exclusively to registered members and their guests.

We know that connection is essential to wellbeing. The World Health Organization recently reaffirmed that good quality social connection plays a vital role in reducing loneliness and improving health outcomes. Through shared spaces and programs designed to foster genuine connection and belonging, the Wellbeing Centre plays a part in reducing social isolation - particularly at a time when patients and caregivers may feel most alone. We are proud to offer a space where community, inclusion and care are prioritised.

We look forward to supporting you on your wellbeing journey.

The St Andrew's Wellbeing Centre is made possible with the generous support of private benefactors, HPS Pharmacies, and the St Andrew's Hospital Foundation.

Thank you also to our consumers who provided such excellent guidance in the development of this offering.
