Thanks to the generous support of Lotterywest, Palliative Care WA is offering a limited number of travel subsidies to help eligible delegates from rural and regional Western Australia attend the 2026 Palliative Care Summit in person.
The Summit, Innovation at the Heart of Care – AI and technology supporting compassion, dignity and connection in palliative care, will bring together people from across palliative care, aged care, health and the community. The subsidies are intended to help reduce the cost of travelling to Perth and support greater participation from regional and rural areas.
Travel subsidies are available to representatives of eligible not-for-profit organisations based in rural and regional Western Australia. To be eligible, applicants must:
Each eligible not-for-profit organisation may nominate a maximum of two representatives.
A limited number of subsidies are available, so meeting the eligibility criteria does not guarantee that an application will be successful.
Travel subsidies can contribute towards eligible travel and accommodation costs associated with attending the Summit in Perth. Eligible costs and maximum subsidy amounts are outlined in the 2026 Palliative Care Summit Travel Subsidy Guidelines.
Subsidies are paid as a reimbursement following attendance at the Summit. Successful applicants will need to provide appropriate receipts and supporting documentation before reimbursement can be made.
Before applying, please read the 2026 Palliative Care Summit Travel Subsidy Guidelines to check your eligibility and understand the program requirements. As the number of subsidies is limited, we encourage eligible delegates to apply as early as possible.
To apply:
Wednesday 12 August 2026 – Applications open
Friday 2 October 2026, 5pm – Applications close
Friday 23 October 2026 – Applicants notified
Thursday 12 November 2026, 8.30am – 4pm – 2026 Palliative Care Summit
As the number of subsidies is limited, we encourage eligible delegates to apply as early as possible.
Travel support is subject to available funding and the terms and conditions of the program. Applicants should not assume their application has been approved until they have received confirmation from Palliative Care WA.
Successful applicants are responsible for making their own travel arrangements and retaining all relevant receipts and supporting documentation for reimbursement.
For questions about eligibility or the application process, contact Palliative Care WA on 1300 551 704 or events@palliativecarewa.asn.au.
Palliative Care WA would like to thank Lotterywest for its generous support of the 2026 Palliative Care Summit and its commitment to helping people across Western Australia participate in opportunities that strengthen their communities.
