Purpose, Mission and Vision

Our Purpose

CrewCare is all about supporting technical and backstage personel and their loved ones working in the Australian live music scene. We deal with the associated problems that can stem from touring and the stress upon those relentless pressures and hours allied to working in the music industry. We work with many agencies and groups who have the same goals as us: to help live music personel and their families in times of need and crisis. We offer assistance, or can refer you to someone best suited to your situation.

CrewCare raises desperately needed funds to help those in crisis and in times of need through its collaboration with leading industry charity Support Act and their dedicated 'Crew' fund.

CrewCare aims to bring public awareness to the diverse range of highly technical and creative skills required of live music production specialists, and acknowledge the vital role crew provide to the live music industry.

Our Mission

“CrewCare's mission is to effect change for the better in crew welfare - personally, financially and professionally.”

Our Vision

Our vision is for every live music entertainment worker to have the same happiness, care, guaranteed earning power and safety nets in place as all other Australian workers.

CrewCare will strive to ensure:

  • Crew are recognised for their creative and technical skills
  • Crew are acknowledged for their incredible achievements 
  • Crew are looked after by the industry in which they contribute so greatly
  • Crew are not exposed to the hardships that can be brought on by their line of work


Our Core Services

SAFE

Support

Our social support services foster a sense of unity and purpose amongst all crew by providing open channels of communication and holding regular get-togethers and events. We are mindful that partners and family are pivotal to our members' wellbeing and encourage participation as a family unit, whilst also referring support services for family members in times of crisis or need.

Advocacy

CrewCare acknowleges there are already some wellestablished organisations that broadly encompass and represent the live production sector. We have built many valuable relationships with peak industry bodies nationwide and collaborate with them to acheive our goals by bringing greater awareness to the issues presented and encouraging further action.

Fundraising

CrewCare is establishing exciting, alternative avenues to raise funds and assist those in crisis. Our projects and public events not only provide much needed funding, but also lift the profile of crew and highlight their core issues. CrewCare engages live production crew from all age groups and recognises that hosting vocal and successful nationwide events has a broad scope of appeal.

Education

CrewCare acts as an information and educational hub to advance the health & wellbeing of production crew. We collaborate with industry specialists to implement educational programs designed to help crew develop selfawareness & monitor their mental wellbeing and physical health, recognise the warning signs and understand ways to deal with issues that can sometimes arise.
