About the organisation

At Liverty Housing, we believe your home should be more than just a place to rest— it should suit you perfectly, from things you need every day to things that make you smile. That’s why we bring accessible homes to life all across Australia. Wherever and however you live, we want to make sure your home fits all your needs. Our vision is that all people with disability and complex care need to have the opportunity to live in high quality housing that enables them to live as independently as possible, enhancing their health, well-being and participation in the community. Our Specialist Disability Accommodation (SDA) homes are built to suit lifestyle - with accessibility top of mind, we want your home to feel like an oasis, a warm hug, a place that really feels like you.

Our model is a contemporary one that brings accessible and affordable housing and support together with smart home technology to give individuals greater choice and control over how they live. The right housing and support in the right location can increase a person’s quality of life and independence, while reducing lifetime care costs.
