Who We Are

We live in a society where people are more isolated, and there’s less contact.
Especially people who live in the bush. We are the companion who turns up
out of the blue to lend an ear, give a helping hand, and be of service.



It’s the Australian way of giving everyone a fair go, and helping other folk.
And as Australia’s oldest bush charity we’ve been doing it for more
than 100 years.

How We Help

We are an agency of the Uniting Church in Australia and we do what we do for the love of helping people. Helping people is human nature. If I can help anyone I will – even if it’s just a smile and saying, “Howdy”. Frontier Services is about making this life connection between people. A telephone call and a chat. A friendly face. A listening ear. A helping hand. It’s called mateship. And it happens on an emotional, a physical, and a spiritual level.

How we’re having an impact for people living in remote communities.

Bush Chaplaincy

We connect skilled volunteers with people in remote Australia who could use a helping hand. With more than 1200 volunteers from various backgrounds, we share a passion for ‘giving back’

Outback Link

We update our readers on our activities and the people we work with, across remote Australia. Frontier News has its origins in a publication written by Rev John Flynn called “The Inlander”
