Outreach Service
The Irish Australian Support & Resource Bureau’s dedicated Outreach Program ensures any elderly member of the Irish Community in Victoria maintains important links through visits in their homes, nursing homes or hospitals. Our priority is to care for isolated, elderly Irish people and those considered vulnerable or at risk.
​
​The program offers information or referral to appropriate government and community resources. It also offers assistance in completing forms for pensions, health care, accessible transport, rent assistance, Centrelink. The IASRB provides transport to these agencies or organises for their representatives to visit clients.

Renowned for their exceptional craft, over the years, the Shamrock Quilters have presented many dignitaries from the Irish Government with gifts of their beautiful quilts.
