Official re-opening of the new Lighthouse Disability Supported Living Facility

---

It is Rod’s and my pleasure to be with you today for the official reopening of the new Lighthouse Disability Supported Living Facility.

Congratulations to everyone involved in the renovations – it is a beautiful home!

I am sure that Brett is happy to be back in his home after months of renovations, and the Steven and Andrew are enjoying their new space!

As Rod and I walk through the newly renovated spaces, we see Lighthouse Disability’s dedication to creating environments where clients with diverse abilities can thrive and live more independently.

These renovations are so much more than bricks and mortar; they reflect Lighthouse Disability’s mission to ensure the comfort, safety and well-being of every client.

Through tailored support systems, your organisation stands as a beacon for individuals seeking practical assistance and a nurturing environment.

We acknowledge the dedicated teams of caregivers, professionals, and support staff who support the wellbeing of Lighthouse clients.

We also recognise the families and communities that stand alongside Lighthouse Disability – it is a collective effort and we thank you for your support and care.

Importantly, we acknowledge your clients, including Brett, Steven and Andrew, who, through their resilience and determination, inspire us all.

They are the architects of their lives, and Lighthouse Disability, and the NDIS, serve as a supportive framework that helps them build the life that they envision.

Congratulations again, and I am pleased to declare this house, officially reopened!
