Adults Lifespan Action Group
The Adults Lifespan Action Group brings together people from across the Barossa community who are committed to improving health, wellbeing and connection for adults aged 25 to 54. The committee includes members from allied health, community services, disability, wellness, business and the broader community. Adults are often the invisible middle of wellbeing conversations, past the early years focus, but not yet in the older adults frame. This group works to identify gaps, develop actions and advocate for an approach to adult wellbeing that's grounded in what the Barossa community has told us matters most.
Our Focus
Our work focuses on:
Addressing the real barriers adults face in accessing mental health, health, and community services
Reaching the people who are hardest to reach -- including men, carers, seasonal workers, and those experiencing economic hardship
Supporting the community infrastructure that connects people, including the volunteer organisations that have sustained this region for generations
Advocating for practical solutions to transport as the single biggest barrier to participation and access.

Governance
Community voice shaped the priorities in the Wellbeing and Inclusion Plan. The Adults Lifespan Action Group now brings that community together to implement the Plan's focus areas across the region, to turn them into practical actions for adults.
The Barossa Council provides the structure, coordination and resources to support this work, including through a Council Collaborative Partner who works between the group and Council. The group's progress feeds into The Barossa Council's annual wellbeing report.
Formal Terms of Reference for the Barossa Wellbeing Network are still being finalised.
