Who are we
Heart Hub South West is a grassroots, not-for-profit organisation based in Collie, Western Australia. We support individuals, families, and communities who have been affected by road trauma — whether the crash was recent or many years ago.
Founded in 2021 by Tarryn, Scott, and Tayla Sanford following the heartbreaking loss of their son and brother Jack in a 2017 car crash, Heart Hub was created from lived experience and a deep understanding of what’s missing in the aftermath of road trauma.
Through grief, connection, and determination, Heart Hub was established to help others navigating similar pain — particularly in regional and remote areas where access to support can be limited.
We are a community-led, volunteer-run organisation powered by generosity — made possible through donations, fundraising, and sponsorship. Everything we do is guided by compassion, connection, and the belief that no one should walk this journey alone.
GRIEF AND TRAUMA IS DIFFERENT FOR EVERYONE
"Your journey is not the same as mine, but if you meet me on the same path, may we encourage each other"
Our Services
We offer free, accessible support to those impacted by road trauma, including:
- Professional Counselling

You don't have to walk this journey alone. Our hearts and doors are open.
