LINK Community Transport (LINK) is a not-for-profit Company that services, benefits and supports diverse community groups, inclusive of the ageing population, people of all abilities and their carers (including those with culturally diverse backgrounds) by providing life-enriching services through effective, accessible, and flexible social and home support.
For over 40 years we have helped thousands of Melbournians live better, more independent and connected lives through the provision of community transport services, domestic assistance, home maintenance services and carer respite.
