This NAIDOC Week, we honour the theme The Next Generation: Strength, Vision & Legacy, celebrating 50 years of recognising and elevating Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander voices, cultures and resilience.

At Guardian Living, we are committed to creating inclusive communities that respect identity, enable dignity and foster a sense of belonging. As we work to provide housing that empowers people with disability, we draw inspiration from the resilience and leadership of First Nations communities who have long exemplified care for Country and for each other.

NAIDOC Week is a time to listen, learn and reflect. But it’s also a reminder that allyship should extend beyond this week and through everyday actions, partnerships and decisions that support truth-telling and self-determination.

For years, life for Dayle felt limited by circumstance. Living in aged care wasn’t the right fit for someone in her fifties who still had so much to enjoy in life.

That changed when she moved into an SDA home in Cranbourne — a place she now proudly calls her own.

Find out what she loves about SDA living by clicking on the link in the comments.

ID: A photo of a woman in a red striped shirt. She is sitting in a wheelchair and on the table in front of her are Easter chocolates and wrapped gifts. It says: “I can choose what foods are included in my grocery shopping, and what I want for my meals. I can even have a sleep-in and watch TV in bed if I want to.
“Moving here has given me my life back, I feel free again.”
