Getting to your place
Blackburn North is about 17 km from the CBD, in the Whitehorse local government area. We plan the trip door to door, including where to park and the walk to your door. Travel is built into the booking, and we tell you what it involves before the first visit.

What we need from you
Your address, the supports you want, and the days that matter. A brief from a hospital, an NDIS plan or a family member helps, but it is not essential. A conversation is enough to start.
