Downs and West Community Support
Downs & West Community Support (DWCS), is a ministry of Community Care Limited, a not-for-profit registered Charity governed by Sisters of Charity Foundation. This outreach offers encouragement and discreet and personalised assistance to farming families and their communities in rural Southern Queensland who are severely affected by climatic conditions or family matters beyond their control. Our care is individualised and includes organising social events, and providing practical, financial, and emotional support and guidance.
We work in collaboration with other rural service providers to organise events and assist where possible. We are motivated to provide compassionate care, share resources and provide hope to communities.
