Keeping Families Close™

RMHC WA gives a family with a sick child what they need most — each other.

When a child is sick or injured it impacts the whole family. Ronald McDonald House Charities Western Australia plays a unique role in enabling, facilitating, and supporting family-centred care within the Western Australian child and adolescent health system.

Acknowledgement of Country

Ronald McDonald House WA acknowledge the Whadjuk people of the Noongar nation as the Traditional Custodians of the land on which we are privileged to live, work and welcome families. We honour their enduring connection to Country, culture, and community, and pay our deepest respects to Elders past and present.

Here, on Whadjuk Noongar Boodja, we open our doors to families from across Western Australia when they need us most. Grounded in the enduring care and wisdom of the Traditional Custodians of this land, we offer comfort, safety, and a sense of home.

We recognise the strength and resilience of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, and we walk alongside them with humility, respect, and a commitment to listening, learning, and healing together.
