23 Hanke Rd, Doncaster, Melbourne, Victoria – Choice Housing, 11.00AM Friday 14th September, 2018
Choice Housing is welcoming The Hon Kevin Andrews, Manningham Mayor Andrew Conlon and State Manager – Victoria of National Disability Services David Moody who will help to break the ground at our Specialist Disability Accommodation (SDA) development at 23 Hanke Rd, Doncaster, at 11.00am on Friday 14th September, 2018.
Every tier of government will be represented at this ground breaking acknowledging the vital importance of such developments.
NDIS SDA is a very specific area of disability accommodation, offering specialist homes for people living with very high needs and who cannot access mainstream housing options due to their disabilities. NDIS SDA aims to provide 28,000 participants across Australia with housing funding, 12,000 participants will need access to new affordable and suitable housing for the first time.
In Victoria 2,941 participants will be looking for new SDA accommodation.
Choice Housing is currently developing a number projects in Melbourne. State of the art and architecturally designed, these projects help to ease the shortage of Specialist Disability Accommodation. The ‘Hanke on Tram’ development is the next to break ground.
With so much uncertainty surrounding the NDIS, access to this type of accommodation helps to ensure the viability of the scheme especially relating to new SDA housing opportunities for eligible NDIS SDA participants.
Choice Housing Pty Ltd sets the benchmark in high quality, affordable NDIS Specialised Disability Accommodation. Choice Housing’s new builds are purpose built, modern and compliant to all building and Livable Housing Guide (LHG) requirements. Current new builds range from Platinum plus level for High Physical Support SDA design category and Silver plus for our Robust SDA design category. All Choice Housing homes aim to achieve energy efficiency and are inclusive of a wide range of assistive technology and design to maximize independence, choice and control for each eligible participant.
Hanke on Tram Development
Architecturally designed, the ‘Hanke on Tram’ development provides 8 individual apartments across three levels. Bespoke self-contained apartments, that are fitted out with market leading design and assistive technology. The Hanke on Tram apartments are close to transport and amenities to promote connection with communities and foster independence.
‘Hanke on Tram’ will provide affordable custom designed bespoke accommodation for eight NDIS SDA participants with NDIS SDA design category High Physical Support funding to live in their own private spacious apartments built to LHG Platinum level compliance. All apartments offer spacious fully self-contained 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom with outdoor space / balconies, secure underground car parking and storage facilities. These apartments will be built in Doncaster a highly sought after Inner East suburb of Melbourne minutes from Westfield Shopping Town. We ensure that all our apartments are close to public transport and amenities to promote connection within the local community services and foster privacy and independence.
The introduction of the NDIS has seen a huge shift in the way people with disabilities receive funding and has emphasized the need for high quality, specialised accommodation. We’re proud to be part of such an important change in the lives of so many.
When we say we’re specialists in accommodation for people with disability, we say it because we’ve lived through it. It’s part of who we are. Choice Housing was born with Directors Anna and Robert Fleming’s vision. Both have worked in Disability Services in Melbourne for over 40 years starting in the former Kew Cottages in 1978. They were passionate about advocating for better care for people with disabilities from day one and that passion continues as strong as ever today.
