Action Community Services

A huge congratulations to my niece Alicia, who is not only family but also a valued member of our team, and of course Sarcha’s daughter, on graduating with her Bachelor of Health Science last night 🎓

I love you so much and I am beyond proud of you. Being there to witness such a proud moment and to be a part of it was honestly just magic. Watching all your hard work, dedication, and determination come together has been incredibly special.

We are so lucky to have you as part of our team, and I have no doubt you will go on to do amazing things in your career.

The night was made even more memorable… the t-shirts were a hit, if I don’t mind saying — even if I somehow managed to miss out on one myself 😂

Congratulations again — such a proud moment for all of us 🤍

Last Sunday we the ACS community participated in the Animal Rescue Charities Colour Run 2025.
What a time we had with lots of colour and bubbles! We can not wait for the next one! 🏃‍♀️🏃🏅

🌸 We’re Hiring – Support Worker Needed 🌸

✨ Look who made the Sunday Mail!
none other than our Assistant Director, Sarcha! 🎉

Spotted rocking her pink PJs like a true superstar at Cosi’s Choir 💕🎤✨ Who knew bedtime fashion could look this good? 😎🌸

Next stop: Vogue Pajama Edition. 😉

Last week the weather tested us at times, but that didn’t stop our participants from making the most of everything the Royal Show had to offer! From side shows and rides to showbags, farm animals, and the Yellow Brick Road — there were smiles all around.

It was a fantastic day out, full of laughter, sensory experiences, and community connection. We’re so proud to support our participants in exploring new environments and having fun along the way! 💚

Rest in Peace Ross, back with your beautiful dogs 💚

Ros showed up ready to WORK — new pool, same determination.

From the first step in the water to the final push, every movement took focus, strength, and serious grit.

Not every session needs to be perfect — but this one? Solid. Strong. Confident. 💪

Proud doesn’t even cover it.

💥 Well done, Brad! 💥
Brad has been putting in some serious effort in woodwork and has just finished this incredible chopping board! 🪵🔨 Every cut, sand, and finish show his focus, dedication, and skill.
We can’t wait to see what Brad creates next. Keep up the amazing work!!!
