Helping Hand Belalie Lodge Jamestown

Named after a local native wattle tree, Belalie Lodge has been part of the local community since 1978 and became part of the Helping Hand family in 2004. Strong relationships and connections with local community groups, a dedicated Auxiliary and a team of volunteers ensure the Belalie legacy of care and community engagement continues to thrive.

Residents enjoy a diverse range of lifestyle programs and activities including music concerts, slide nights, ladies craft afternoons, bingo and movie days.
