Interrelate’ s 90th birthday
In 2016, we celebrated 90 years as relationship experts. From our roots as the Father & Son Welfare Movement in 1926 to today’ s Interrelate, we’ ve grown to service 10 major NSW cities. We also reach out to assist those in greater rural communities. Each year, we help more than 90,000 individuals, couples, families, children, schools and communities to strengthen their relationships through our flexible programs.
Interrelate’ s new centre in Port Macquarie
January 2017 saw the opening of a new Interrelate centre in Port Macquarie, equipped with counselling and mediation rooms, space for supervised family visits and a large meeting area for programs and training. The centre was named in honour of the late Anne and Graham Seton, in recognition of more than 40 years’ contribution to our organisation.
On November 25, 2016, every staff member united via teleconference to celebrate everything we’ ve worked towards and to contribute their own unique festivities to the event, which was being live-streamed. Watch the celebration here: goo. gl / AHBxTd

Recuperating after Cyclone Debbie
In March 2017, in the wake of Cyclone Debbie, NSW’ s North Coast was hit by a disastrous flood. About 20,000 people were evacuated, 10,000 were left without power and safe water, and homes and businesses – including our Northern NSW centre – were devastated. However, thanks to the determination of our resilient staff, our services were up and running again just five days after the destruction.
