Northern Support Services Information

We first opened our doors in 1947 as Northcote Preston Helping Hand Association. Since then we have created a long and proud history of providing innovative and supportive programs for people with disability, their families and carers. We provide extensive services by using community resources and designing programs to increase and build on each person’s abilities. This allows people to actively take part in their local community. We celebrate each person’s qualities and create programs that reflect their abilities, goals and choices. We continually evaluate our services and programs to make sure our clients, and their families, receive the highest quality service and attention. We offer a diverse range of services that are designed to: - provide you with life skills and opportunities - increase your abilities - allow you to take part in your community. We’ll work with you to help you achieve your goals and make choices that are right for you.
