The Handy Guide of Women's Support Services was developed by Queensland’s oldest charity The Lady Musgrave Trust to provide support services for women who are without shelter or at risk of becoming homeless.
Previously this guide was developed and provided as a physical guide that was updated annually, with tens of thousands of copies distributed through frontline and support services across Queensland each year.
The Handy Guide has now been made available as an online resource with a services directory for women in crisis, older women at risk of homelessness, and women experiencing domestic and family violence.
In May 2026, The Handy Guide management and ownership was transferred to a Queensland-based, female-led content agency, The Content Division.
Under the management of The Content Division team, The Handy Guide is continually updated with vital information for women in crisis or at risk of homelessness.
