Homeward Bound

Helping people return home.

After a long time in hospital, it’s a relief to go home. But sometimes, it’s not that simple.

Many of our clients, particularly from our disability sites, often enter their next home with no or limited funds to set up a unit. They often require assistance with the purchase of white goods, kitchen equipment, toiletries and linen.

It is a stressful but exciting time for our disability clients, who have often undertaken months of rehabilitation, to leave what has been their home for an extended period of time. It is a positive, but daunting step to transition back into their own accommodation, and to live an independent life again. Often learning to manage money and a household all over again brings with it a level of stress.

Our Homeward Bound program hopes to alleviate some of the stress by gifting a Homeward Bound starter pack for the transition back into the community. Our Homeward Bound starter pack include a toiletries pack to start our clients on their transition towards an independent life.
