Find your Home Sweet Home in Horsley
Supported Independent Living (SIL) is an NDIS support program where you can live with other people who also require some support, or on your own. Our friendly and qualified team members will be available to help you with everyday tasks like cooking, housework, and personal care. Each group of housemates is carefully selected to ensure a great mix, so you’ll be able to enjoy making new friends and socialising while developing your independence. We are here to support you in achieving your goals and living the life you want. Therefore, each house has slightly different programs to suit the residents and their individual needs.

This welcoming home is shared by two men in their 20s. They enjoy a relaxed and social lifestyle, playing on the Nintendo Switch, having BBQs, watching movies and spending time together. They also enjoy connecting with participants from other SIL homes and attending social gatherings and activities together.
Both housemates attend day programs throughout the week, providing opportunities for structured activities, community participation and social engagement.
About your locality:
Horsley is a modern, family-oriented suburb located just west of Dapto, offering a peaceful lifestyle with a strong and growing sense of community. Designed with families in mind, Horsley features quiet streets, well-planned estates, and plenty of green spaces that encourage outdoor living and neighbourly connection. It is a suburb where people know each other, children play in local parks, and community pride is easy to see.
One of Horsley’s standout features is its abundance of parks, playgrounds, and walking tracks, including the Brooks Reach development where this home is located. These shared spaces naturally bring residents together, whether it’s for weekend picnics, casual catch-ups, or community events. The suburb’s layout promotes a safe and welcoming environment, making it especially appealing for those looking to settle into a close-knit neighbourhood.
Location features:
- Local shopping area with general stores and GP services
- Brookes Reach has bus services that will take the clients to the nearest train station, which is located in Dapto, approximately five minutes away
- There are several bus stations all around the Brookes Reach community, and these are accessible only minutes apart from each other (within walking distance).
- With four established services already operational in the Brookes Reach and Calderwood area, we have been able to build cohesive relationships with the local community mental health team and the police liaison officer. Both being critical services, we check in regularly, and they offer clinical and training services to our existing employees and clients.
