Thinking of moving out

Making the move

Now I’m in a home of my own

About MICH

” I will be moving into my own apartment soon and I am really looking forward to it. I will have my own space and the freedom to do my own thing. I will be much closer to public transport and that will make it so much easier to get out and about, do shopping and go to work. It’s also close to my class at the Pines. It will be so much easier when my parents are away because I won’t have a big house to look after and lock up. I have learnt to cook and am looking forward to keeping my own place really nice.”

” Socialising with friends and sharing fun times are important to me, so when I had the opportunity to move into my own home, I looked for and needed friendship. I can’t live on my own as I need some assistance to live, so I decided to welcome housemates into my home.”

Why we exist

Our research and practical experience confirmed that there is strong evidence that the accommodation needs of people with a disability, who live in Manningham, are not being met. There are no opportunities for accessible accommodation available to them that give them the same choice as that of a typical citizen. Choice as to where they live, with whom they live, and in a place that makes sense to them.

It’s not just about a house

We believe that a home is not just the house in which you live, and the people with whom you choose to live, but is also the community in which you have chosen to live.  A sense of belonging can be found when home is in a broad community where you find ongoing connection to people and places, where you are able to participate and contribute to that community.
