Overview
Supported Living Homes are purpose‑built tenancy‑based residences where adults can enjoy the independence of their own home while receiving the safety and support they need. Each home is designed to feel like a real neighbourhood hub, offering a blend of private living spaces and shared communal areas that foster connection, routine, and personal growth.

- Common spaces including a lounge, a garden patio, a laundry area, and a small study or workshop room for skill‑building activities.
