Sisterhood Foundation welcomes two new charity partners

Posted on by Natalie

The Sisterhood Foundation has welcomed two new charities to its portfolio, Catherine House and Lou’s Place. Both organisations support women in crisis who are navigating issues such as domestic and family violence and homelessness.

The decision to provide funding to Catherine House and Lou’s Place was informed by findings from the Women Deserve Better report, produced by the Sisterhood Foundation in partnership with Monash University in 2025.  The research found Australian women want more support for issues related to social determinants of health.

Catherine House and Lou’s Place support women experiencing some of the major areas of unmet need identified in the research, including experiences of violence and trauma, mental health conditions, homelessness and housing insecurity.

Partnering with these two charities also fulfils the Sisterhood Foundation’s commitment to invest an additional $1 million this financial year to hear, acknowledge and address the unique health and wellbeing challenges facing Australian women and girls.

The new partnerships expand the Sisterhood Foundation’s national footprint and bring the total number of charity partners in its portfolio to twelve.

Funding for the two charities will focus on updating systems to strengthen their ability to support women in need. For Catherine House, the Sisterhood Foundation will fund an ambitious project to revolutionise its intake system to ensure they respond to every woman who calls Catherine House. If successful, this new intake model has the potential to scale and be adopted by similar services across the country.

Sisterhood Foundation Chair and Managing Director of Wesfarmers Health Emily Amos said, “Expanding the Sisterhood Foundation’s charity partner portfolio allows us to deepen our impact and respond to the issues that matter most to Australian women.

“It’s through the generosity of people across our business, like customers who donate at their local Priceline Pharmacy, that the Foundation is able to support organisations like Catherine House and Lou’s Place as they respond to the complex challenges faced by women and girls every day. By enabling our partners to build stronger systems and capability, the Sisterhood Foundation helps more women access the care, safety and support they need, when they need it most,” she said.

Since its inception in 2011, the Sisterhood Foundation has raised more than $13.7 million as part of its mission to hear, acknowledge and address the unique health issues impacting Australian women and girls.

 

About Catherine House

Founded in 1988, Catherine House is South Australia’s only homelessness and recovery service for women. At Catherine House, women experiencing homelessness across South Australia can access support including crisis and longer-term accommodation. Catherine House walks alongside women to address the immediate issues created by homelessness and assists women to plan a future with housing and financial security and build purposeful lives. 

Director of Catherine House Julie Duncan said, “We are delighted to join the Sisterhood Foundation through our new partnership. Together, we will establish a new Gateway Service to reach and support more women in preventing or working towards ending their homelessness. This new service will be truly life-changing for women who don’t have a safe place to call home.” 

 

About Lou’s Place

Lou’s Place is a daytime drop-in centre in Redfern in Sydney that supports women who have experienced significant trauma throughout their lives and are often navigating challenges such as homelessness, domestic and family violence, financial hardship, and social isolation.

Lou’s Place CEO Amanda Greaney said, “As CEO of Lou’s Place, I am deeply grateful for the Sisterhood Foundation’s partnership and commitment to strengthening organisations that support women. This investment in our capacity will help us build the systems and infrastructure needed to grow sustainably, allowing Lou’s Place to support more women experiencing homelessness, domestic and family violence well into the future.”

Wesfarmers Health has celebrated its new modern Fulfilment Centre in Cairns, marking a significant investment in the accessibility of medicine and health products for communities across Queensland.

The facility was officially opened by Wesfarmers Health Managing Director Emily Amos and Chief Customer Officer Richard Pearson along with President of The Pharmacy Guild of Australia Professor Trent Twomey who owns several pharmacies in the region, serviced by API.

The new Fulfilment Centre is nearly three times larger than the previous facility and will service more than 120 pharmacies across Far North and regional Queensland, from Cairns, south to Mackay, inland to Mount Isa, west to Weipa and to the tip of Australia. Designed with long-term growth and sustainability in mind, the site features a solar array that will supply around 20% of the facility’s electricity needs, supporting Wesfarmers Health’s ambition to achieve net zero emissions by 2035.

Ms Emily Amos said the new facility will play an integral role supporting Wesfarmers Health mission of making health, wellness and beauty experiences simpler, more affordable and easier to access.

“The API wholesale business plays an extremely important role in servicing Australia’s health needs by providing vital medicines to people across the country. Whether a customer is in Cairns, Canberra or Cabramatta they will receive the same level of service at the same price. We’re proud to open this new facility that will ensure community pharmacies in the region can provide their patients with essential medicines within 24-hours of ordering them,” she said.

Professor Trent Twomey, President of the Pharmacy Guild of Australia said, “Pharmacies play a critical role in Australia’s healthcare system and rely on wholesalers like API to deliver medicines quickly and efficiently. As the owner of pharmacies in Far North Queensland, I’m excited by this larger, brand-new facility which will help me continue to provide exceptional, timely service to my customers in the region.”

InstantScripts reaches 3 million users and 10 million Health Services delivered

Posted on by Natalie

InstantScripts, Australia’s leading telehealth platform, has reached two significant milestones, serving three million individual users and delivering 10 million health services since launching in 2018.

The achievements reflect growing Australian demand for convenient, accessible healthcare solutions that fit into busy modern lives.

“These milestones represent more than numbers – they represent three million Australians who have embraced a more convenient way to manage their health,” said Ben McLean, Executive General Manager – Digital Health at InstantScripts.

“To have delivered 10 million health services since we began is a testament to our commitment to making healthcare more accessible and affordable for all Australians.”

InstantScripts is part of Wesfarmers Health, which acquired the platform in July 2024. It provides Australians with access to online consultations, prescriptions, pathology requests and medical certificates through a network of experienced Australian-registered doctors 24/7, removing traditional barriers to healthcare such as mobility, geography and after-hours access.

“Our network of over 300 doctors provides healthcare to patients whenever and wherever they need it,” says Dr Sarah Cavanagh, InstantScripts Chief Medical Officer.

“Behind every one of those 10 million services is a patient who needed care, and our job is to make sure that care meets the same clinical standards they’d expect from any qualified Australian doctor.”

InstantScripts is governed by the Wesfarmers Health Telehealth Code of Practice which establishes high industry standards, ensuring that telehealth services operate with excellence, integrity, and patient-centred care at their core.

InstantScripts is integrated with My Health Record, which means the service already complies with recently announced requirements for online prescribers to make available medicines-related information in the platform.

“InstantScripts was an early adopter in this space having integrated My Health Record into its telehealth platform in 2024,” says Dr Cavanagh. “This enables our patients and their doctors to access comprehensive medication and health information to support safe prescribing decisions.”

Representatives from InstantScripts’ clinical team will also attend a round table in Canberra this week to discuss telehealth standards.

Priceline Pharmacy’s deep connection to local communities and focus on empowering women makes them an ideal partner as we continue to grow the game at every level.”

Sisterhood Foundation welcomes two First Nations Australian led organisations to its charity partner portfolio

Posted on by Natalie

The Sisterhood Foundation has announced two new Charity Partners – Mura Kosker Sorority and the Darwin Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Women’s Shelters Indigenous Corporation (DAIWS) – marking the first time the Foundation has partnered with First Nations Australian owned and operated organisations.

The decision to appoint First Nations Charity Partners was supported by findings from the Women Deserve Better report, produced by the Foundation in partnership with Monash University in 2025. The research highlighted the need for greater focus on health issues linked to social determinants such as family violence and homelessness – challenges disproportionately faced by First Nations women and girls, and those in regional and remote communities. Funding for the two charities will focus on capability-building initiatives such as governance and systems strengthening, culturally grounded healing programs and leadership development.

Sisterhood Foundation Chair and Managing Director of Wesfarmers Health Emily Amos said, “The addition of Mura Kosker Sorority and DAIWS marks an important moment in the Foundation’s evolution and reflects our commitment to improving health and wellbeing outcomes for all women and girls in Australia.

“These partnerships recognise the importance of supporting organisations where solutions are led by communities, rooted in culture and shaped by lived experience. It is a first step towards helping address inequity and supporting better health outcomes for First Nations women and girls, particularly in regional and remote Australia.”

Since its inception in 2011, the Sisterhood Foundation has raised more than $13.7 million as part of its mission to hear, acknowledge and address the unique health issues impacting Australian women and girls. With the addition of Mura Kosker Sorority and DAIWS, the Foundation’s portfolio now includes 10 Charity Partners.

 

About Mura Kosker Sorority

Founded by women for women, Mura Kosker Sorority advocates for human rights and improves family and kinship wellbeing in the Torres Strait through tailored services and programs.

Their core service areas include integrated programs in family wellbeing and parenting support, domestic and family violence response and prevention, child safety delegated authority and cultural decision making, and leadership, education and women’s empowerment initiatives.

Chair of Mura Kosker Sorority Regina Turner said, “The Sisterhood Foundation’s investment in Mura Kosker Sorority represents far more than a financial contribution – it is a commitment to the wellbeing, safety and empowerment of women and families across the Torres Strait.

“This partnership strengthens our capacity to deliver essential programs that uphold cultural integrity, build family resilience and provide life-changing support to those who rely on our services. This funding enables us to grow and develop our organisation, allowing us to enhance the quality and accessibility of our programs.”

 

About the Darwin Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Women’s Shelters (DAIWS)

DAIWS provides safe and culturally competent services to women and children who are victims/survivors of domestic, family and sexual violence across the Darwin region including the surrounding remote communities of the Northern Territory, and across the Kimberley region of WA.

DAIWS General Manager Regina Bennett said, “We are honoured to be entering this partnership with The Sisterhood Foundation.

“The partnership will strengthen DAIWS relationship with victim survivors of domestic family and sexual violence, not only for the women and children we support today, but for generations to come.

“The investment into culturally appropriate healing programs, leadership and updated client technology systems will be a huge benefit to our service.”

 

Wesfarmers Health welcomes patient safety initiatives for digital health

Posted on by Natalie

Wesfarmers Health has welcomed the Minister for Health and Ageing’s announcement that safety standards for telehealth services will be bolstered through requirements to use My Health Record, as well as through the design and development of a National Medicines Record.

Dr Sarah Cavanagh, Chief Medical Officer for Wesfarmers Health’s telehealth provider InstantScripts said telehealth is an accessible and popular method of healthcare for Australians, and the focus on medicine visibility will provide patients with further confidence in its quality and safety.

“InstantScripts is an early adopter in this space having integrated My Health Record into its telehealth platform in 2024. This enables our patients and their doctors to access comprehensive medication and health information to support safe prescribing decisions.

“The ability of our patients and doctors to use My Health Record is part of our broader commitment to clinical governance, including our Telehealth Code of Practice, which sets the standard for delivery of high-quality digital healthcare.

“InstantScripts is committed to working with government and other stakeholders to enable genuine interoperability across all prescribing settings – digital and traditional – to truly enhance patient safety while maintaining appropriate privacy protections and high standards of clinical governance,” Dr Cavanagh said.

Priceline Pharmacy stores are not closing

Posted on by Natalie

In December 2025, API (a Wesfarmers Health company), took the difficult decision to appoint receivers and administrators to 56 pharmacies within the Infinity Pharmacy Group (Infinity) following a significant deterioration of its financial position.

Infinity operates 92 pharmacies – 72 of which are Priceline Pharmacies – under individual franchise agreements with API. These stores have been owned and operated by Infinity-aligned pharmacist owners.

The appointment of receivers and administrators was taken to stabilise these pharmacy businesses, enabling their continued operation, delivery of community pharmacy services, and payment of team members and suppliers. These pharmacies continue to trade as usual and are not at risk of closing because it is the Infinity Pharmacy Group as a company that is affected by the receivers and administrators’ appointment.

Some media have reported that these Priceline Pharmacies are at risk of closure – nothing could be further from the truth.

Following escalating financial difficulties experienced by Infinity, the appointment of receivers and administrators remained the only responsible path to ensure these stores continue to operate and service their local communities.

Following stabilisation of these businesses, the administrators are now seeking expressions of interest from new pharmacist owners for these stores which will put them on a sustainable platform for the future.

Priceline Pharmacy celebrates 10 years of media event The Beauty Prescription Live

Posted on by Natalie

The OG beauty showcase event saw guests interact with the retailer’s breadth of beauty & wellness brands, as well as experiencing beauty-led retailer, atomica.

Priceline Pharmacy’s health and beauty credentials were on show at the retailer’s recent Beauty Prescription Live event, with more than 250 guests exploring the multiple-room experience which featured 61 brands that provided product knowledge, brand stories, interactive elements and product samples.

Of the 61 brands, 20 brands were exclusive to Priceline Pharmacy, 13 stands featured founder-led brands and 11 brands were introduced to guests in a separate atomica room.

Highlights included Made by Mitchell, Bouf, the breakout hack, Bronte, Urban Jungle, Daily Skincare, UKLash, Conserving Beauty and Priceline Pharmacy’s own beauty accessories brand iLLI – which recently scooped two awards for its aesthetic package design including ‘Best visual identity’ and ‘Best creative strategy’.

Joining media and content creators were also some of Priceline Pharmacy’s most loyal customers – its Sister Club Pink Diamond members. The brand ran a competition to win a trip to Sydney with more than 1100 Pink Diamond members entering, with 20 eventually selected from across Australia to attend the pink carpet event.

Also featured at the event was Priceline Pharmacy’s Anything Menopause program – an Australian first health initiative – with Chief Pharmacist Melissa Gannon on hand to talk through the in-store services and curated product range available to consumers.

Wesfarmers Health’s Chief Customer Officer Richard Pearson said, “It was fantastic to see our Anything Menopause program resonate so well with guests. There was so much positivity about what we’re doing to promote and normalise perimenopause and menopause awareness; seeing this engagement made me extremely proud of the work we’re doing in Priceline Pharmacy stores.”

Richard added, “We know that value is still top of mind for consumers and we are doing so much for our almost 10 million Sister Club members to reward and recognise them. At this year’s event we took it one step further by hosting 20 of our most loyal customers to this money-can’t-buy experience.”

Wesfarmers Health’s beauty-led retail offer – atomica – was also featured at the event. With six pilot stores in market across NSW (Castle Towers), Victoria (Chadstone, Doncaster, Chirnside Park and Geelong) and WA (Ocean Keys) this event provided the opportunity to showcase the retailer’s differentiation in the market. The event saw media and content creators engage with product brands available at the beauty retailer including Skoop, Aesthetics Rx, Medicube, Mermade Hair, SSAINT, TIRTIR and Vida Glow.

All Beauty Prescription LIVE guests received a limited-edition, reusable, sustainable, pink trolley to take their samples home. Over the years, the Priceline Pharmacy trolley has become an iconic feature in its own right – and this time trolley was juxtaposed at its new Campbell’s store space amongst fellow icons of Sydney’s Opera House and Harbour Bridge.
