Understand your community

In this section we provide an overview of wellbeing in Western Australia (WA) and some free tools to help you find data on wellbeing in your community. We also explain how wellbeing connects to Lotterywest and Healthway’s Community Investment Framework.

What Is wellbeing?

We have identified five key categories of wellbeing in our Lotterywest Healthway Community Investment Framework. More information about our Framework and the outcomes that contribute towards wellbeing can be found here.
