What is disability housing actually like? A deeper dive into our Sunshine Coast properties.
Supported Independent Living Accommodation on the Sunshine Coast and Australia wide is a crucial aspect of ensuring inclusivity, support and accessibility for individuals with a disability. It aims to create an environment that builds independence through support so that guests can live their best possible lives.
Here at Lavender Co, our Sunshine Coast disability housing options are tailored to meet the personal requirements of each of our guests. This blog post will provide an in-depth look into our Sunshine Coast, Supported Living Accommodation. From cosy cabins to spacious homes, each of our boutique properties are thoughtfully designed to promote comfort, safety, and inclusivity.
What is Disability Housing?
At its core, disability housing focuses on accessibility, ensuring that homes are equipped with features and modifications that facilitate mobility and navigation for people with disabilities.
However, it also extends to considerations of sensory, cognitive, and developmental needs, incorporating features like sensory carpets, calming spaces and communication aids to support guests with diverse requirements.
It provides a sense of belonging and stability for individuals who may face barriers to accessing mainstream housing options.
