About The Host:
Injury Matters aims to prevent and reduce the impact of injury within the Western Australian community. We work to have a positive impact on the community as a quality, sustainable organisation committed to creating safer people and places. We raise awareness of injury prevention and recovery by providing education, advocacy and support for those affected by the impact of injury. Given the breadth and diversity of injury in Western Australia (WA), we have worked across a range of current and emerging injury priority areas affecting the community. This includes falls, trauma recovery, community violence, substance-related harm, and safety promotion. We influence, empower and collaborate with people, agencies, communities and governments for positive injury outcomes.
