Hi, These are the groups in Australia (I can’t help much because I don’t know anything about Australian geography) and I got this off of the Lupus Around the World website (http://www.mtio.com/lupus/).

Hi, I am also from Sydney with SLE. There is a Lupus Association which is contactable via e-mail but unfortunately I do not know of any association that is on the net in Sydney. I pay $20.00 per year & get a very informative newsletter every month with a library of books to borrow on SLE. Their e-mail address is: lupus…@ozemail.com.au I hope this is of help to you.
