Charity of the Month

September – Inclusee

Inclusee is a forward-thinking, community-centric organisation and registered charity dedicated to alleviating isolation and loneliness amongst older Australians by fostering meaningful connections and empowering them to engage with a virtual community centre. Operating across Queensland, New South Wales, and Victoria, Inclusee offers government-funded services to cater to the needs of its diverse participants.

At the core of Inclusee’s mission is the idea of connection. Their passionate team is committed to crafting an inclusive environment that caters to the unique needs of our participants, their families, and our dedicated volunteers. Through their Digital Programs and Virtual Community, their specially trained volunteers provide companionship, support, and tailored learning experiences that promote social engagement and personal growth.

Inclusee believes everyone should be able to build lasting connections and enjoy a rich social life, regardless of their location or personal circumstances. By offering a wide range of specialised programs and activities through user-friendly technology, Inclusee makes it easy for its participants to discover new interests, share common passions, and forge lasting friendships within a safe and supportive community.

The organisation is guided by its core values of Trust, Compassion, and Respect and is committed to upholding the highest standards of inclusivity, as outlined in the Aged Care Diversity Framework. Inclusee takes a human-rights-based approach to its work, ensuring that its mission aligns with creating a world where all older Australians can access high quality aged care services, experience equitable outcomes, and embrace their diverse characteristics and life experiences.
