Socioeconomic Disadvantage by Postcode

The DOTE report 2015 (Dropping Off the Edge) measures postcodes by the degree of factors that limit people’s life opportunities. According to this report Morwell is in the most disadvantaged postcode rank of Band 1, Moe is in Band 2, Lakes Entrance is in Band 4, Wonthaggi and Orbost are in Band 5 and Churchill is in Band 6. Latrobe is generally a highly disadvantaged area according to this.

DID YOU KNOW?

At Lifeline Gippsland, even clothes too worn to sell can help save lives!
We repurpose retired donations such as old towels, flannelettes, t-shirts and more, into rags used by businesses across Gippsland. Each bag of reags sold supports our 13 11 14 Crisis Support Line.
Every donation helps! We gladly accept all clothing, but towels and flannelette are at the top of our wish list for rags.

Want to get involved?

Join our Warehouse team and try the surprisingly therapeutic art of rag cutting! It’s hands-on, fun, and helps make a difference.

Celebrate World Op Shop Day with us at Traralgon Centre Plaza!

Bring along your pre-loved clothes and take part in a feel-good event that supports your local community. Everyone who donates will go into the draw to win a beautiful gift hamper!

This special event is happening on Saturday 18th October, right in the Food Court area of Traralgon Centre Plaza, where you can donate between 10am and 2pm.

Proudly organised by Traralgon Centre Plaza in support of Lifeline Gippsland, this day is all about giving back and making sure no one has to face their darkest moment alone.

With just 9% of the funding needed to run our 13 11 14 crisis line coming from government sources, Lifeline Gippsland relies heavily on the support of our community and the income from our five Op Shops across the region.

We're so thankful to Traralgon Centre Plaza for putting this event together and standing beside us in supporting mental health and crisis services across Gippsland.

Don’t let your unused clothes go to waste, donate now and help provide support to your community.

This week is all about recognising the vital role carers play in our community.

Carers support others every day, often behind the scenes, often without a break. Whether it’s helping with daily tasks, medical needs, or simply being there.

If you’re a carer and things feel heavy or stressful, support is always available.
Lifeline is here to listen, 24/7.
Call 13 11 14

Today’s the perfect excuse to share a smile, even the cheesy kind! Whether it’s from a good coffee, a bad joke, or a hug from your dog, little moments of joy can make a big difference.

But hey, if today feels a bit tough, that’s okay too. Not every day is smiley, and you don’t have to fake it.

Just know we’re here, 24/7, for the good days, the hard ones, and everything in between. Call Lifeline on 13 11 14 anytime.
