Core supports
Assistance with your home and daily living.
Daily living is more than just getting through the day, it’s about creating a routine that feels manageable and comfortable. At Unity Respite, we provide support to people across Melbourne’s western suburbs with everyday tasks such as personal care, household chores, and travel, helping you live independently and with confidence. We know that everyone’s needs are unique, so we take the time to understand what works best for you, ensuring your routines and preferences are always respected.
Community Participation
Get involved in your local community.
Being part of the community means different things to different people, and at Unity Respite, we’re here to help make that connection in a way that’s comfortable and meaningful for you. Our community participation support is designed to help you engage with local activities, develop new skills, and participate in social opportunities that bring joy and build confidence. We understand that stepping out can be challenging, especially for those who have faced tough times. That’s why we focus on creating positive, safe experiences that empower you to explore new possibilities, one step at a time.
Skill Building
Building independence through practical skills.
Life skills are essential for living independently and making informed choices. At Unity Respite, we understand that building these skills takes time, patience, and the right support—especially for those facing complex challenges. Our capacity-building services are tailored to help you grow, whether it’s managing daily tasks, building social skills, or gaining the confidence to embrace new challenges. We’re here to support you in creating a path that’s right for you, empowering you to feel capable and confident in every aspect of your life.

Living well means having the right support for both your body and mind. At Unity Respite, we connect you with trusted allied health professionals who are here to help you build strength, develop new skills, and enhance your overall quality of life. Through our community partnerships, you’ll have access to experienced physiotherapists, occupational therapists, psychologists, and speech pathologists—all focused on helping you achieve your goals and feel more confident each day.
Supported Independent Living
At Unity Respite, Supported Independent Living (SIL) is about more than just a place to stay; it's about creating a life that reflects your goals, values, and individuality. We know that everyone's journey is different, especially for those who need 24/7 support or are transitioning from challenging circumstances. That's why our SIL services are designed to provide the right balance of assistance and independence. Whether you're living solo or in shared accommodation, Unity Respite offers a stable, respectful, and empowering environment where you can build daily routines, grow in confidence, and feel truly at home. Our team is here to provide more than just practical help; we are here to listen, understand, and walk alongside you every step of the way.
