WA Mums Cottage is an independent, not for profit charity which was established in 2016.
Our mission is to create a nurturing environment for women and mothers in need.
Our services include day respite, mentoring, counselling support, advocacy, and emergency relief, all offered in a compassionate, supportive, and homely environment.
WA Mums Cottage is self-funded, and to support our sustainability, we run a friendly and welcoming Op Shop and Café at 25 Davey Street, Mandurah.
The emergency relief services we offer has bought women to us, but beyond the tangible assistance, such as hampers or vouchers, we offer a compassionate and supportive environment where women feel heard and valued.
