Company Profile
Royal Far West
Company Overview
At Royal Far West, we believe every child has the right to access the services they need to thrive, no matter where they live. From our base opposite Manly beach in Sydney, we provide multidisciplinary health and disability services for children from rural and remote Australia with developmental, behavioural, learning and mental health difficulties.
We are passionate about working with country children, their families, schools and local health providers to provide high quality support and improve outcomes
Company History
“You look after their souls and I will look after their bodies.”
That’s what Dr Moncrieff Barron, Royal Far West’s first Chairman, said to our founder Reverend Stanley Drummond, and it sums up our original ethos perfectly. While our mission has evolved since then, we take a similarly holistic approach to care today, by attending to the health of kids in need as well as the emotional and mental wellbeing of their families.
We have also always had the good fortune of attracting remarkable people to our ranks, who have had significant impact on our capabilities and reach.
Our engineers have always developed custom solutions for kids in need when no existing solution was available. We’ve crafted countless callipers, belts, braces and walking frames that have been fitted, adapted and engineered in our on-site workshop.
When aviation pioneer Nancy Bird Walton joined us in 1935, she played a pivotal role by providing air transport for nurses in Bourke to reach remote areas and respond the emergencies. She later became a secretarial assistant with our mobile dentist clinic.
