Practical help in a shared home
You need assistance or supervision with everyday tasks where you live with other people.
Shared living support
Sharing a home should still leave room for the way you want to live. We support daily tasks in shared living arrangements and discuss how individual needs fit alongside household routines. Enquire about support across Greater Melbourne, Melbourne’s western suburbs, Wyndham and Geelong.

Everyday support in a home you share. Assistance with everyday tasks in a shared home, with space for your own routine and choices.
We agree on the activities, suitability and scope with you before support begins.

A personal approach to your support
AN ILLUSTRATIVE EXAMPLE
You might share a home with others but prefer to prepare your own lunch before heading out. Support could help you follow that routine, take part in agreed kitchen tasks and get ready for your activity without assuming everyone in the home has the same schedule.
Support shaped around you
The right support begins with understanding your goals, the things that matter to you and how you prefer to be supported.
Your own routine within the household
You want personal preferences and goals respected alongside shared spaces and activities.
Clear responsibilities
You would like everyone involved to understand which support is yours and how agreed household tasks are handled.
Understand the living arrangement
We discuss where you live, who else is involved and the assistance you are asking us to provide.
Separate shared and individual needs
Your preferences, privacy and personal support tasks are considered alongside any agreed shared activities.
Agree on the support schedule
The hours, tasks, responsibilities and suitability of the arrangement are confirmed before support begins.
Making support work for you
We discuss the details together, so you know what to expect before you decide.
Funding and costs
Shared living support must fit your individual NDIS plan and the agreed assistance you need. Sharing a home does not mean every resident has the same funding or support arrangement.
We explain the proposed service costs and responsibilities before you agree. Rent, groceries and utilities are separate everyday expenses, so it is helpful to consider these alongside the cost of support.
Before you decide, we explain your service agreement, how to request changes and how to give feedback.
We support people across Greater Melbourne, including Melbourne’s western suburbs, Wyndham, Point Cook, Werribee, Tarneit and Truganina, as well as Geelong. Tell us your suburb so we can confirm local availability.

Tell us what you need
Share your goals, suburb and preferred way to contact you. You can involve someone you trust.
Agree on the details
Together, we confirm suitable support, available times, funding and costs. We explain the service agreement before you decide.
Start with a clear plan
Once you agree, we arrange the first visit and explain how to ask questions, give feedback or change your support.
You can contact us yourself, or ask a family member, carer or support coordinator to help. An enquiry does not book a service.
