Frontier Services is a not-for-profit organisation providing a wide-reaching network of support to people living in remote areas of Australia. It advocates for equity of services, regardless of where people live and is committed to building strong and resilient remote communities. It works in some of the most isolated areas of the country delivering programs such as respite for carers, in-home childcare, mobile playgroups, migrant services, family support services, remote nursing and community health care.
Frontier Services is a national agency of the Uniting Church in Australia. It grew out of the pioneering work begun in 1912 by Rev John Flynn as the Presbyterian church's Australian Inland Mission as well as early outback travelling ministers of the Congregational and Methodist churches. It has a network of 22 Patrol Ministers who travel enormous distances across remote parts of Australia to provide pastoral care and ministry.
It has a volunteer program, Outback Links, which places short-term volunteers with communities and families to give practical and direct relief.
