We’re super excited to share that Outta the Box Support Services (OBSS) has just opened a freshly renovated Short-Term Respite house in Collie – and it’s ready to welcome participants!
Here’s a little snapshot of what’s on offer at our Collie house:
🏡 2 cosy, freshly renovated participant bedrooms
🎨 Craft, games & creative activities
🌱 A veggie patch project (plant, water & harvest together)
🍳 Fun cooking lessons & shared meals
🤝 Plenty of opportunities to get out & about in the community (cafés, shops, events, parks)
When? Weekdays or weekends – overnight or a couple of days. Each stay is tailored around the participant’s goals and interests.
Supports:
✔ 1:1 or 1:2 staffing (depending on needs)
✔ Medication assistance if required
✔ Friendly, experienced staff who love what they do
❗ While the Collie house isn’t wheelchair accessible, we’re also able to provide respite at other suitable locations to ensure all participants can enjoy a safe and comfortable stay.
We’d love to welcome new participants for a break that’s supportive, fun, and goal-focused. If you’d like to chat about whether this might suit someone on your caseload, please get in touch.
