Victorian Early Years Awards Success!

The By Five Paediatric Program has been recognised with a prestigious Victorian Early Years Award 2023 for ‘Promoting Children’s Health and Wellbeing’., in partnership with the Royal Children’s Hospital, Melbourne.

This place-based initiative was designed from the ground up, and this award belongs to the people of the Wimmera and goes out to our local children, families, professionals and communities.

Many rural children were previously being referred to specialist services located in the city for health and development issues that could be resolved locally. Through By Five, they now receive that expertise through local primary care services that they trust and use every day.

We even made the local rag! State award win for By Five - The Weekly Advertiser
