Purple House

Purple House is a community-led organization in Gillen, Northern Territory, established in 2000 to provide vital dialysis services to Indigenous patients from remote areas who had to leave their homelands for treatment. The organization not only offers dialysis but also age care, primary health services, and social support, emphasizing the importance of reconnecting patients with their culture and country.
The initiative arose from the community's fundraising efforts that highlighted the deep connections between health, culture, and family. Through various projects, including the Purple Truck mobile unit and the Bush Balm initiative, Purple House continues to empower and support Indigenous communities, ensuring that healthcare is accessible and culturally relevant.
