Street Side Medics

Your first look at some of the legends who’ll make up SSM Newcastle. 💙 Last week, we welcomed a bunch of new volunteers to the team ahead of our newest clinic launch this Friday. Keep an eye out for updates, we’re so excited to see this next chapter come to life!

Street Side Medics is six! From our first clinic to the many vans, volunteers, and supporters that now make up Street Side Medics. We’re so grateful to everyone who’s been part of it, so proud of what this community has built, and so excited for another year of growth & impact.

Last week, we were thrilled to have the Dandenong Star Journal speak to one of our volunteers, Andrea, about the new SSM Dandenong mobile clinic and the work our team is doing in the community. Read the full story via the link below! dandenong.starcommunity.com.au/news/2026-01-1…

The first SSM clinics of 2026 are kicking off this week across Nowra, Lalor Park, Woolloomooloo, Marrickville, St Kilda, Surry Hills, Waterloo, Bourke St, and Hornsby. We're so glad to be back and can't wait another year of community, compassion, and care. ✨

Wishing you a safe, relaxing, and joyful holiday season from the entire Street Side Medics Team! We’re so proud of what we’ve achieved together this year and can’t wait to be back with you in the new year ✨

With the end of the year coming up fast, our clinics will be taking a short break over Summer. Here are all the dates you need to know - we can’t wait to be back with you in 2026!

Last week marked the launch of our 3rd Victorian clinic with the opening of SSM Dandenong! This new clinic runs on Friday mornings, working closely with local services to bring GP-led healthcare to people experiencing homelessness. Big thanks to everyone who made it possible 🙌

Street Side Medics has been selected as one of eighteen charities to receive support through the Golden Eagle Race. As part of the event, 10% of the prize money will be donated to the chosen charities. We’ve been paired with Sepals, trained by Cliff Brown & ridden by Ethan Brown.

We're currently on the hunt for volunteers for clinics coming soon to Dandenong & Newcastle. There are currently spots available for all types of volunteers, and in particular we’d love to hear from GPs and doctors. Interested? Head over to our website to register!

🎉 A big shoutout to our Hornsby, Parramatta, and Blacktown clinics for being named the Volunteer Team of the Year of their region! We couldn’t be more grateful for all of our volunteers, and we can’t wait to cheer these teams on at the State Final Gala later this year!

Today we officially launched our newest Street Side Medics clinic in Waterloo! The clinic will run every Thursday from 10am–12 noon at @OzHarvest Waterloo. Huge thanks to the partners, supporters, and incredible volunteers who helped make ​this possible.❤️

Huge thank you to everyone who has supported and volunteered with us over the last 12 months, your commitment has made a real difference, and we’re grateful to continue this work together in Victoria. 🤝

💙It's Homelessness Week. More than 122,000 people in Australia are experiencing homelessness. Behind every number is a story, and a right to safe housing, health care, and dignity. This year’s theme, Homelessness Action Now, calls on all of us to step up and make change happen.

🐾 We’ve had some very special visitors at our clinics over the last few weeks. Thanks to everyone who brought their pets along, you made our week!

Make a tax-deductible donation to Street Side Medics before June 30 and help us deliver life-changing healthcare to people experiencing homelessness. Every dollar counts. Every visit matters. Let’s make this EOFY count for good.

Located at Cleve Gardens at St Kilda, the new @StreetSideMed clinic now serves homeless people every Wednesday from 5:30pm to 7:30pm. hubs.li/Q03mpSQy0
