Lives Lived Well welcomes NSW Government’s commitment to alcohol and drug services

Lives Lived Well, a leading not-for-profit provider of alcohol and drug treatment and mental health services, welcomes the NSW Government’s $224 million investment in alcohol and other drug treatment services, with $157 million allocated to regional NSW. This funding is an important step in increasing support for communities in areas such as Far West NSW, the Hunter New England, and the Mid North Coast, where demand for services remains high.

Mitchell Giles, CEO of Lives Lived Well, said, “This investment is a significant boost for regional communities. Lives Lived Well has a long history of providing effective treatment and support in these areas, and we are eager to work with the government to ensure the funding meets the needs of the communities we serve.”

Lives Lived Well also emphasises the importance of sustainable, ongoing funding to ensure the long-term success of these services. “Residential rehabilitation services are essential for helping individuals rebuild their lives,” Giles said. “Ongoing investment not only maintains vital facilities but also supports the development and retention of a skilled workforce to deliver quality care across the state.”
