Practical help, with dignity

Support for the days when you need a hand.

What do you need today?

Two services. A clear first step.

Tell the team which service you are asking about so they can give you the relevant information.

Emergency relief & budget help

Ask about support with everyday needs and help thinking through your budget. Assistance depends on your circumstances and current availability.

Ask about relief

Affordable haircuts

Ask about the $5 haircut service and check eligibility, the next available session and booking arrangements.

Ask about haircuts

Emergency relief

Talk with us before you visit.

A call helps us explain the support available and what you may need for an appointment.

The current YFS service directory lists 5FOLD emergency relief for residents of Yarrabilba and Logan Village, with appointment-only access and a requirement for photo ID and proof of address. Please check these arrangements directly with our team.

If you are unsure whether the service fits your circumstances, ask. You do not need to send identity documents, financial records or a detailed personal story through a general website enquiry to start the conversation.

Plan your visit

Know what to expect before you leave home.

Service arrangements can change. These questions will help you confirm the practical details.

  1. Ask what is available

    Explain whether you need emergency relief, budgeting support or a haircut. Check whether the service is currently able to help.

  2. Confirm the arrangements

    Ask about eligibility, an appointment or session time, any cost and the documents or card you should bring.

  3. Check where to go

    Confirm your visit with the team at 23 Shaw Street, Yarrabilba. General office hours do not mean every service is available throughout the day.

Affordable haircuts

A fresh cut, at a smaller cost.

5FOLD's published haircut service is $5 for eligible card holders, with sessions advertised for Wednesday mornings.

The service information lists pension, health-care and DVA cards. Call to check whether your card is eligible and to ask how to arrange a haircut.

Please confirm the next session before travelling. Availability, booking arrangements and holiday changes are best checked with the team.

Should I upload my identification to an enquiry?

Please begin with a general question. Ask the team how any required documents should be provided before sharing them.
