A New Chapter in Independence

Supported Independent Living (SIL) is coming to GGC

Finding the right home and supports can be a big step.


At the George Gray Centre, we’re excited to introduce Supported Independent Living (SIL) — shared homes with 24/7 supports for people with disability who want to live more independently, while staying connected to family, friends, and community.Our first three-bedroom home is almost ready to open in Sale on 24 November 2025, and a second home is planned for 2026 as we continue to grow this important service.

What others are asking

  • Supported Independent Living (SIL) means having support in your home — day and night — to help with daily tasks, build independence, and live the life you choose.
    Supports may include:

    • Personal care and daily living

    • Cooking, cleaning, and household tasks

    • Building life skills and confidence

    • Community access and social participation

    • Overnight support for safety and reassurance

    SIL is about independence, choice, and belonging — having your own space, with the right supports around you.

  • SIL may be suitable if you:

    • Need regular or 24-hour support

    • Want to live with others in a shared home

    • Are working towards more independence

    • Have SIL in your NDIS plan, or are exploring adding it

    If you’re unsure whether SIL is right for you, our team can help you understand the options and next steps.

What’s next

We’re starting small to make sure we do it well.
Places are limited, and SIL can take 6–12 months to be approved in an NDIS plan, so we’re inviting early Expressions of Interest (EOIs) now.

Submitting an EOI isn’t a commitment — it just helps us understand your needs and contact you with updates.
