Message from Healthway

To all our partners, stakeholders and sponsorship and grant applicants

You will be aware of reports in the news media concerning Healthway and in particular issues surrounding our sponsorships.

We would like to assure you that Healthway continues to operate normally.

Processes to deal more effectively with the issues that have been raised around the acquisition of tickets and hospitality were put in place in mid-2014.

Healthway’s health promotion activities, including sponsorships, health promotion research and community projects will continue as they did previously.

Applications for health promotion projects, health promotion research projects and sponsorship applications from sport, arts and community groups are welcome and will be processed in the normal manner.

Please contact us if you would like to discuss an application.

Healthway seeks to promote and support healthy lifestyles to reduce the burden of preventable disease in Western Australia.

Healthway (the Western Australian Health Promotion Foundation) was established in 1991 under Section 15 of the Tobacco Control Act 1990 as an independent statutory body reporting to the Minister for Health. Healthway now functions under Part 5 of the Tobacco Products Control Act 2006.

Healthway provides sponsorship to Sports, Arts and Community organisations to promote healthy messages, facilitate healthy environments, reduce the promotion of unhealthy messages, and increase participation in healthy activities. Healthway also provides grants to a diverse array of organisations to encourage healthy lifestyles and advance health promotion programs.

The key priorities for Healthway are reducing harm from tobacco, reducing harm from alcohol, reducing obesity and promoting good mental health.
