The Children’s Psychiatric Service Launceston, run by the Mental Health Services Commission, opened in about 1971. It had a multidisciplinary team that used a community and family orientated approach to working with children. The Service, which became the Wellington Street Clinic, appears to have closed or been replaced in the late 1980s or early 1990s.
Members of the team visited Ashley Home for Boys.
In about 1975, the Service became the Wellington Street Clinic.
It began holding regular sessions on the north-west coast in 1984.
