About Us:


Our aim is to enhance the wellbeing and quality of life of older people, people with disabilities, their carers and family by providing information, referral, and assistance with daily living so they can remain independently at home and in the community.

MGCCI's service delivery model is driven by a belief that our continued relevance and viability is reliant on our ability to respond to individual, family and community needs in a holistic, encompassing manner.

It reflects three facets we believe critical to a satisfying life:

  • Connectedness a sense of belonging and feeling connected to others and community
  • Individual Support services that people specifically need to live safely in their community
  • Mobility / Access people's ability to get out and about in their community


Our goal is for everyone coming to MGGCI to receive a consistent message about our role and support plus engage with each person in a way that looks at that individual's holistic need, which can be more than the need or reason they present with.
