Shining a Light on the Gaps

It shows clear areas where healthcare is lacking, how the distance Aussies travel impacts mental and physical health, and why its so urgent we action teams of support workers, allied health professionals and eventually specialised medical practitioners. By combining data with human stories, Project Blackhole makes the invisible impossible to ignore.
