About the organisation
UnitingCare is a courageous and creative health and community services provider across Queensland and the Northern Territory.
As the health and community service provider of the Uniting Church they have supported Queensland communities for over 100 years. Their 15 000 staff and 9 000 volunteers care for and support people from all walks of life, including older people, people with a disability, children, families, and Indigenous people.
Their staff travel thousands of kilometres to reach people in some of the more remote areas of Queensland - from Thursday Island in the far north, to just south of the Queensland border and out west, as far as Mt Isa - and now in the Northern Territory.
Built on compassion, they believe people should experience life in all its fullness and their shared values form the core to their work of offering hope, healing and transformation to the people they serve.
