South Port Day Links Inc.

A volunteer-based organisation that provides support to older people and people with disability

South Port Day Links (SPDL) is a local not for profit, volunteer based organisation that has been delivering services to older people, people with a disability and those who care for them who are residents of the City of Port Phillip (CoPP) for nearly thirty (30) years. Our mission is to improve the lives of older people and people with a disability by providing a range of community transport and support programs to enable independent living. The services provided by SPDL enable local residents to remain socially connected, independent and to continue living in their homes. We do this by providing a door to door community transport service within the CoPP to access health appointments, recreational, shopping and other activities essential to everyday living and personal well-being. Other companion services and programs available to clients are: PetMates(assistance with looking after pets), WalkMates (assistance for those who have difficulty walking on their own), GardenMates (assistance for those unable to do their gardening).

This Pride Month, we celebrate the many identities, stories and experiences that make our community stronger.

Everyone deserves to feel safe, respected and connected, regardless of who they are or who they love.

We are proud to stand with our LGBTIQA+ clients, volunteers, staff and community members.

We celebrate inclusion not just during Pride Month, but every day of the year. Happy Pride Month!

🐾 Fred & Tilly – Regulars on Board

Meet Fred and his loyal companion Tilly, outside the Better Health Network in South Melbourne.

Fred (the human!) and Tilly (Boston Terrier, personal trainer and trusted sidekick) are regulars on our DayLinks service. Whether it’s getting to appointments or simply getting out and about, they are always a welcome presence on board.

Tilly keeps a close eye on things — and on Fred — making sure he stays active and on track. Together, they bring a bit of extra energy and a lot of smiles to every trip.

We always enjoy having them with us.

Volunteers bring out the very best of our community. 💛

By giving their time, kindness and compassion, they make a life-changing impact on elderly people and those living with disability — creating connection, reducing isolation, and bringing joy to everyday moments.

The hours they give may seem small, but the difference they make is immeasurable.
