Katrina enjoyed some time at the Launceston Festival of Fun last week. She said that her favourite part of her day was the food - although, being an animal lover, it looks like she enjoyed those baby animal cuddles too!

Patrick enjoyed some special cuddle time with 8 week old Zeva yesterday.
They say a dog is not just a man's best friend, it's a constant reminder of unconditional love. 🐾 🐶 💕
That smile on Paddy's face says it all!

Sometimes, a little support can make a big difference!

Supported Independent Living (SIL) promotes independence, choice, control and dignity, but most importantly, it’s about empowerment. With just a little help, encouragement and the right support, people can build confidence, develop their skills, make their own choices and achieve their goals. It’s about providing support when it’s needed, while giving each person the freedom to live life on their own terms.

Last Saturday, Eskleigh Participant Marelle was supported to clean her room, put her clean washing away, hang up some clothes and make a toasted sandwich for lunch, which was enjoyed outside in the sunshine. After lunch there was even a game of noughts and crosses!

Later in the afternoon, Marelle enjoyed some pampering time with a relaxing footspa and a refreshing face mask!

This is Supported Independent living.

Today is a good reminder to pause, connect and simply to check in on one another...
R u Ok day is not just today, but it is everyday. If you, or someone you know is doing it tough, take a moment, start a conversation, listen without judgement and remind them of the help that is available...
Today at Eskleigh properties around the state Participants and Staff planted Sun Flowers. In the coming weeks and months we hope to see some bright yellow flowers, that will again remind us to keep asking... R u Ok?

A very exciting milestone at Eskleigh Home!

Participants at Eskleigh Home are super excited to finally have a fully accessible shower and bathroom, with plenty of room for dressing! This is something that has been on the wish list for a very long time! Previously, participants needed to be assisted back to their rooms to dress after a shower.

Not only does Phase 1 of the new bathroom renovations mean more privacy and comfort during personal care. But it is so much more than just a new bathroom! It’s about creating an environment that supports choice, independence and dignity for the Participants who call Eskleigh Home, home... 💙

A heartfelt thank you to the Bruce Wall Trust who have generously made this life changing project possible!
