Last month, our team visited locums and community partners across the NT, including the beautiful communities of Hermannsburg (Ntaria), and Amoonguna.

Spending time with local health teams, listening to their experiences and hearing how our locums are supporting culturally safe, community-led healthcare is always a highlight.

These visits remind us why NTRLP exists, to strengthen partnerships, support local services and ensure care is accessible where it’s needed most.

A huge thank you to the Hermannsburg and Amoonguna communities for the warm welcome and for the incredible work you do every day.

Community Spotlight: Canteen Creek.

Canteen Creek is located on Warumungu and Alyawarr Country, approximately 275 km southwest of Tennant Creek and 600 km from Alice Springs and is home to approximately 200 residents.

The community can be accessed by road or air and features a sports centre, local store, and is a great base for exploring the beautiful Davenport–Murchinson National Park, renowned for its bushwalking and camping opportunities.

Did you know?

Some NT communities are hundreds of kilometres from the nearest hospital, making access to vital healthcare services challenging.

NTRLP bridges this gap by providing highly skilled healthcare professionals who travel to remote communities, supporting local health teams to deliver culturally safe, community-led care where it’s needed most.

By ensuring care is close to home, NTRLP helps strengthen healthcare access, improve health outcomes and support the wellbeing of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander families across the NT.

Because everyone deserves access to quality care, no matter where they live.

On this day, we remember Cathy Freeman’s iconic Olympic victory, a moment of unity, pride and inspiration for all Australians.

Her courage and determination continue to inspire us as we deliver healthcare that uplifts, empowers and supports First Nations communities across the Northern Territory.

Just as Cathy’s story reflects resilience and strength, so too do the everyday stories of Aboriginal Communities across the Territory, whose determination continues to drive our work.
