CHSP Multicultural Social Support Groups in Northern Suburbs of Sydney

As an approved My Aged Care provider and not-for-profit, FOCUS Connect has been supporting the multicultural community for over 40 years. We foster meaningful connections through our tailored CHSP Multicultural Social Support Groups across Sydney's Northern Suburbs. Each group is led by a trained worker fluent in the group's language, ensuring a crucial link between participants and the services they rely on.

Culturally Inclusive Multicultural Social Support Groups

Enhance your emotional, spiritual, and physical well-being by joining a Multicultural Social Support Group. Located across Sydney's Northern Suburbs, these groups are led by trained staff fluent in the group's language.


Our dedicated team also helps break down barriers for seniors from non-English speaking backgrounds.

Social groups include:

Vietnamese

Laotian

Filipino

Chinese

Multicultural

Spanish

Arabic

Mauritian

Egyptian

Each program is tailored to the unique needs of participants, offering social interaction, mental stimulation, and physical activity in a safe environment. Groups also enjoy monthly outings to different locations, decided by the group.


Complimentary transportation is available for outings, with additional pick-up and drop-off options offered per the CHSP schedule of fees. Places are limited for all groups, and bookings are essential.

What Does It Cost?

If you're eligible for CHSP services in your home, you'll need to make a personal contribution. The Australian Government heavily subsidises our Commonwealth Home Support Programme, ensuring your fees remain affordable. Typically, you will contribute around $15 per each group attended. Plus, there are no exit fees or hidden charges under the Commonwealth Home Support Programme.
