Gateway Community Services (GCS) has continually provided exceptional Social Support Services to communities since 1994. Offering an extensive range of programs in Melbourne and the Inner West, GCS aims to enrich and improve the overall health and wellbeing of residents whilst encouraging an active lifestyle. GCS brings groups closer together through our exciting mix of programs whilst taking in the sights and sounds of Melbourne or specialised targeted activities.
Over the years, GCS has evolved into a well-respected, significant and essential not-for-profit organisation supporting those who may be socially isolated, have health concerns that prevent them from engaging or may find some daily living tasks a little challenging.
GCS’ appealing mix of Social and Lifestyle programs:

GCS Support for Care Givers:
Many people do not identify as a care giver (carer) because they feel it is their duty or their sense of commitment to the person they care for. Often, persons providing support to others neglect their own health and mental wellbeing. GCS understands the plight of care givers and values their contribution to our communities.
