Eskleigh Foundation Inc Eskleigh is a not-for-profit providing high quality support to people with a disability and people needing respite

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.

We are delighted to share the amazing work Alice has been doing. Alice has been busy making clothing protectors for the people we support! A huge shout-out to Jodi, our support worker, whose daughter generously donated a sewing machine a few years ago. It's great to see this gift being put to so much good use.

Tania has been observing Alice, and we are hopeful to involve her more in sewing activities. Alice is pictured wearing one of the clothing protectors that she has made! Thank you, Alice, for your creativity and hard work!

The team at Arthur Street- with help from our amazing gardener, Andrew (Westy) and, our maintenance manager, Rob, have been working super hard on our amazing garden this summer.

We are so blessed to have so many beautiful fruit trees, an elevated vegetable garden, along with 5 chickens who lay us yummy fresh eggs daily.

Our cat, Ivy, loves spending time outside with the chickens, they are all best friends!

Being able to enjoy healthy, fresh meals from our garden is such a blessing!
