About Tradies IN Sight Inc – Mental Health Support for Tradies in Dubbo

Tradies IN Sight Inc is a DGR-endorsed not-for-profit organisation registered with the ACNC since 2018, dedicated to improving mental health and wellbeing for tradespeople and their families in regional New South Wales. Established on 28 June 2018 and based in Dubbo, the charity addresses the industry’s alarming suicide rate, reported as six times the national average, by bridging the gap between suicide prevention and proactive mental health management. It equips tradies with practical skills, safe spaces, and faithful support to foster resilience and reach their full potential.

Programs and Services

Tradies IN Sight Inc delivers targeted mental health initiatives tailored to the unique challenges faced by tradespeople in regional areas.

• Personalised support: One-on-one guidance to navigate tough times and build emotional skills.
• Community events: Breakfasts and night gatherings to strengthen connections and reduce isolation.
• Mental health resources: Practical tools for managing stress, depression, and other issues.

Services operate through relationship-focused approaches, standing “shoulder to shoulder” with tradies via friendship, community activities, and essential support.

Impact and Reach

Operating across regional NSW from its Dubbo base, Tradies IN Sight Inc promotes a vision of tradies holistically managing their mental health.
