headspace
headspace is a free, youth-friendly service for all young people aged 12-25 and covers four main areas: mental health, physical health, work and study support, and alcohol and other drug services.
Our headspace centres are located in Bathurst, Canberra, Dubbo, Orange and Queanbeyan, with additional satellite services in Cowra and Lithgow.
headspace is funded by the Commonwealth Government and is supported by a number of local partners. It plays an integral role in providing early intervention and support for young people and their families, and works in the community to breakdown the stigma relating to mental health.
Marathon Health is one of the largest providers of headspace services in Australia. Our Cowra and Lithgow services are managed through headspace Bathurst, but feature locally based staff and facilities to support the needs of each community.

After Hours Service
Marathon Health’s response to COVID-19
A message from our CEO
We are watching the COVID-19 situation develop in our communities and our thoughts are with impacted communities.
Following advice from the Australian Government about physical distancing, we will cease face to face appointments and outreach services, and transition what services we can to virtual servicing via video and phone.
These changes will be effective from Friday 20 March at 5pm, until further notice.
During this time, our two key aims have been to maintain important health services to isolated and vulnerable people, while keeping our staff and their families safe.
Our After Hours GP clinic and telephone services will continue to operate as normal. Please visit After Hours to find out more information.
What this means
- Our physical office locations will be temporarily closed; however, staff will be working from virtual locations, and can still be reached via email or mobile during regular business hours
- For specific services, you may able to speak to your regular staff contact from the comfort of your own home. Our team will be in contact with all clients to ensure the transition to telephone/video delivery is as seamless as possible
- For those services where we are unable to offer telephone/video facilities, one of our team will be in touch to discuss alternative arrangements and reschedule for a later date
We understand this may cause stress in an already uncertain time, and we will endeavour to communicate and provide alternative options wherever possible.
For more general information about COVID-19, please visit credible sources such as health.gov.au.
If you are feeling anxious or worried, there are some great resources and forums available through Beyond Blue. If you are in a crisis, please call triple zero or go to your nearest emergency department. Find 24/7 support in your area here.
Thank you for your support during this difficult time,
Megan Callinan
