The Maltese Welfare (NSW) started in October 1977 as a result of a workshop on social services held at Kellyville, Sydney. The original name was the Maltese Welfare Group but on incorporation, on 9th January 1995 the name was changed to Maltese Welfare (NSW) Inc.
Maltese Welfare (NSW) is made up of first and second-generation Maltese who work in welfare-related areas or who have the welfare of the Maltese community at heart. Maltese Welfare (NSW) acts as a resource backup to other service-providers, being either Maltese associations or Australian-based agencies, in providing information, advice and referrals with respect to the Maltese community.
The aims of the Maltese Welfare (NSW) include:
(a) Co-ordination and cohesiveness in welfare programs
(b) Programs for the Maltese community in NSW
(c) Research on welfare needs of the Maltese community
(d) Dissemination of information to the Maltese community in user-friendly and accessible form.
Maltese Welfare (NSW) holds regular information sessions on various issues considered of relevance and urgency to the Maltese community in general. It plays an active role in highlighting various community needs and supporting the promotion of remedial measures.
