Shared Living

Several of our shared-home arrangements sit in this part of Cairns.

Close Community

A suburb where neighbours know each other, which changes how support works.

Cultural Support

A significant First Nations population and culturally responsive support to match.

Manoora service area

Shared living and daily support in a suburb built on close connections.

Manoora is residential, quiet and tightly connected. It suits shared living arrangements well, provided the matching is done properly. We put real weight on compatibility here because in a suburb like this, a household that does not work is obvious to everyone in the street.

Why choose us in Manoora

Person-centred, not vacancy-centred.

It is quicker to fill a vacancy than to match a person. We do the slower thing, because a placement that breaks down in six weeks helps nobody. That is true even when a referral is urgent, and we will say so up front.

Compatibility Assessment

Never skipped, however quickly a placement is needed.

Consistent Staffing

Properties close together means the same familiar workers, not a rotating cast.
