24.01.2022 At DSA we're committed to providing supports for people to live a life of choice and inclusion and we're so excited to share that our participants are moving into their new home in Tahmoor. Built by @BlueCHP, this is the first DSA owned house which has been purpose built specifically with high physical support needs in mind. It is fully wheelchair accessible, with spacious bedrooms, lowered kitchen bench for easier access and accessible bathrooms. With a spacious garden and ...covered pergola there will be plenty of opportunities to take time out to relax outside under cover as spring approaches with summer not far behind! We're incredibly pleased with our collaboration with BlueCHP and their dedication to making this a house our participants can call home! #supportedindependentliving #SIL #choiceandcontrol #dsa #community #wollondilly #bluechp #NDIS#ndis #aplacetocallhome
