We are governed by a passionate Board of Directors, strongly committed to Eskleigh’s mission, and are greatly reliant on the financial support and generosity of the Tasmanian community. Eskleigh is staffed by paid, qualified employees and volunteers. We operate a 42 bed supported accommodation with full time, qualified nursing and support staff at Eskleigh Home in Perth, Northern Tasmania. We also offer contemporary residential homes in Longford, Kings Meadows, Montrose and Mornington, where people with a disability requiring moderate support live as part of a group home arrangement. Both Eskleigh Home and the residential homes support and accommodate younger adults with varying levels of intellectual or physical disability, including disabilities caused by an Acquired Brain Injury. Eskleigh also boasts a premier statewide community support network, offering in-home care and respite services, enabling people with a disability to stay in the comfort of their own home with full support and daily healthcare. Delivering a real quality of life Eskleigh enables hundreds of Tasmanians with a range of disabilities to enjoy a meaningful, active and fulfilling way of life. Established in 1947, we have a long and proud history supporting people with a disability at a range of levels so that they may enjoy a quality of life not otherwise possible. With our supported accommodation options, attendant care and respite services and community events, Eskleigh supports and encourages clients to embrace life and become active members of their community, enriching not only the lives of people with a disability but feeding back into a prosperous Tasmanian community.

Spooktacular Halloween at Eskleigh!

This morning, we conjured up some frightful fun at Eskleigh. Our amazing staff and the people we support embraced the Halloween spirit dressing up in their spookiest costumes. We indulged in a delicious morning tea featuring spine chilling cakes and scary biscuits that were almost too creepy to eat - and lets not forget the fruit salad with some unexpected cut off fingers !!! EEEEKKKK. Even good old black board got in on the act!! Hurry up !! Hurry up!!!

Thank you to everyone who joined in on the festivities and helped make it a hauntingly good time ....I wonder if Alice joined in?

Last year we were fortunate to receive a $3,000 grant from the Bell Bay grant scheme. This funding has enabled us to construct new raised garden beds, replacing the old, rotting frames. Rob Butler, Andrew Westwood and Steve Bayes have successfully completed building process by removing the old structures and installing the new beds.

With proper linings these new beds will enhance our vegetable growing efforts - no more water leaking out of the wooden frames!

A huge thank you to Bell Bay Aluminium the generous support!
