Since 2019

Bunyarra was founded in 2019 by Michael Sanford, after identifying many gaps within the sector and his region. As Bunyarra began to focus on addressing these particular gaps, the counselling service evolved and Narelle quickly came on board as Program Manager.

Since 2019, the team at Bunyarra have not only continued to uphold their vision of identifying needs within their community but also looked broader at what needs Bunyarra can support on a larger scale.
