Weโ€™re excited to share yet another bigger and better location as CareSpace continues to grow and evolve ๐Ÿ’œ

With our Cooking Program now running from a beautiful farm in Batesford ๐Ÿง‘โ€๐Ÿณ๐ŸŒพ and our brand-new STA home now open in Mt Duneed ๐Ÿก โ€” weโ€™ve made the decision to close our Roslyn Road Hub as itโ€™s no longer needed.

Weโ€™re also proud to share that our High Intensity and Nursing supports have moved to a fully accessible location in Armstrong Creek, providing greater comfort, accessibility, and quality care for our participants.

And now for the exciting partโ€ฆ

๐Ÿ“ Our NEW CareSpace Office Hub is officially open!

Conveniently located in the heart of Geelong, just a stoneโ€™s throw from GMHBA Stadium:

๐Ÿ“ 402 Latrobe Terrace, Geelong

๐Ÿ•˜ Open Monday โ€“ Friday

Please join us in welcoming Carolyn McDiarmid to the CareSpace team!

Caz joins us as our new Office Manager, overseeing the daily operations of the CareSpace team and helping ensure everything runs smoothly behind the scenes for our participants, families, and staff.

Many in our community may already know Carolyn through the incredibly heartfelt book she created alongside Angela Blakston, sharing her journey of raising a child with Down syndrome โ€” a story that has touched so many.

Carolyn brings a lifetime of knowledge to the disability sector, with both professional and personal lived experience. From roles including Family Engagement Officer, and more recently working in the Support Coordination space, Carolyn has developed a deep understanding of what it takes to support people with genuine care, connection, and compassion.

Her experience, insight, and values align so beautifully with what CareSpace stands for, and we know she will play an important role in helping our participants receive the high level of support they need to live the life they choose.

We are absolutely thrilled to have you with us, Caz. Welcome to the CareSpace family ๐ŸŒฟ

๐Ÿšจ๐ŸŒฟโœจ BIG NEWS, FRIENDSโ€ฆ ITโ€™S FINALLY HERE!!! โœจ๐ŸŒฟ๐Ÿšจ

After lots of dreaming, planning, teamwork, coffee โ˜• (and maybe a few happy tears)โ€ฆ

๐ŸŽ‰ CareSpace has officially expanded into another BRAND NEW location! ๐ŸŽ‰

And we couldnโ€™t have done it without the incredible dedication, heart, and hustle of our amazing CareSpace team members.
This space is more than just walls and gardens โ€” it started with incredible generosity, and was then developed through passion and dedication, and will now thrive with the belief that everyone deserves a place to grow. ๐Ÿ’š

โญ๏ธ FINAL DRAFT PICK ANNOUNCEMENT โญ๏ธ

With our final draft move, CareSpace has dipped into the AFL Supplementary Old Timers List to secureโ€ฆ drumroll pleaseโ€ฆ

๐Ÿ† Adam Cooney!

250 AFL games.
202 goals.
๐Ÿ… 2008 Brownlow Medal winner.

More affectionately known (by himself) as โ€œThe Brownlow Medallistโ€ ๐Ÿ˜„

And if you donโ€™t remember him from his time dominating with the Dogs and Bombers, you might remember him surviving the jungle on Iโ€™m a Celebrityโ€ฆGet Me Out of Here! ๐ŸŒด๐Ÿ

But beyond the footy field and reality TV, Adam brings something even more important โ€” years of genuine dedication to the disability sector. Heโ€™s been volunteering alongside CareSpace for many yearsโ€ฆ so we figured it was about time we gave him a locker and a payslip!

Adam will be working across our incredible programs, sharing pearls of wisdom from his playing days, building confidence, encouraging resilience, and helping participants kick their own goals.

Welcome (officially!) to the CareSpace family, C***s โญ

โญ๏ธ With our third pick, allow us to introduce: Joel Edwards โ€” better known as โ€œThe Duckโ€. ๐Ÿฆ†

A burly full forward who strikes fear into defenders, Joel brings just as much heart off the field.

He currently works in one of our Supported Independent Living homes and is famous (locally, at least!) for his legendary cheese and ham crumpets.

Weโ€™re lucky to have The Duck bringing his energy, strength, and snacks to the CareSpace team!
