About Us

Our agency commenced in 1972 with the initial undertaking to provide community information and services to meet the needs of the growing community in the Bankstown Local Government Area. Over the past thirty years the organisation has grown to provide a diverse range of services to the community.

In August 2004 with the commencement of a new Board and senior management the organisation underwent a significant transformation to reflect the changing environment and capacity building of communities to ensure corporate responsibility, provision of  innovative services and programs that reflect the organisations vision of  making  communities inclusive and  strong.

To reflect our change and our commitment to communities for the future the organisation changed the name to Creating Links Co-op Ltd.

Within this focus our innovative and diverse services are building on foundations that support strengthening, enhancement, resilience and overall capacity to families and individuals children and young people.

Creating Links is committed to expanding its service provision to the community.
