Last week, Tasmania’s Minister for Housing and Planning, Felix Ellis MP, officially opened Glenson Place in Claremont. Among the guests were Royce and Thea Fairbrother, Gaye Rutherford and Ally Mercer, Chair of Richmond Futures, who spoke at the event.

This purpose-built independent living property was developed through partnerships with The Fairbrother Foundation, its Fairbrother Charitable Trust and Homes Tasmania. This collaboration allows us to provide 24/7 support to NDIS participants living with mental illness in a modern property specifically designed to support individuals with mental illness and psychosocial disabilities.

The 14-unit property is the first project supported by the Fairbrother Charitable Trust and is named Glenson Place in honour of Thea and Royce Fairbrother’s son, Glen.

We are incredibly proud of the positive mental health benefits experienced by the participants living at Glenson Place.

“It’s like a hotel! Things are going really well at Glenson Place. The staff are brilliant and all residents are respectful. I think it’s wonderful. It’s great to have communal space and also privacy as well. I have settled into my new routine well and am looking forward to continue moving forward” – Tim (Richmond Futures independent living program participant)

Are you looking for supported independent living or independent living options in North West Tasmania?

Our Shearwater property, Munday Place, offers fully furnished individual studio apartments situated on a flat block with beautiful landscaped outdoor areas to enjoy. The property offers privacy from the main street but is still a part of the Shearwater community and its picturesque surroundings. The site is staffed 24/7 and would suit NDIS participants 18+ years old with a primary or secondary psychosocial disability.

Close to Devonport, Munday Place is ideal for those seeking a quiet coastal home or a rejuvenating short stay.
