Eskleigh Foundation Inc

Eskleigh Foundation Inc Eskleigh is a not-for-profit providing high quality support to people with a disability and people needing respite

We are governed by a passionate Board of Directors, strongly committed to Eskleigh’s mission, and are greatly reliant on the financial support and generosity of the Tasmanian community. Eskleigh is staffed by paid, qualified employees and volunteers. We operate a 42 bed supported accommodation with full time, qualified nursing and support staff at Eskleigh Home in Perth, Northern Tasmania. We also offer contemporary residential homes in Longford, Kings Meadows, Montrose and Mornington, where people with a disability requiring moderate support live as part of a group home arrangement. Both Eskleigh Home and the residential homes support and accommodate younger adults with varying levels of intellectual or physical disability, including disabilities caused by an Acquired Brain Injury. Eskleigh also boasts a premier statewide community support network, offering in-home care and respite services, enabling people with a disability to stay in the comfort of their own home with full support and daily healthcare. Delivering a real quality of life Eskleigh enables hundreds of Tasmanians with a range of disabilities to enjoy a meaningful, active and fulfilling way of life. Established in 1947, we have a long and proud history supporting people with a disability at a range of levels so that they may enjoy a quality of life not otherwise possible. With our supported accommodation options, attendant care and respite services and community events, Eskleigh supports and encourages clients to embrace life and become active members of their community, enriching not only the lives of people with a disability but feeding back into a prosperous Tasmanian community.

What a lovely morning Garry had! A visit to his friend Julie, and he found some stunning passion fruit flowers on his way. He couldn't resist giving Marley, the birthday pup, some extra cuddles to celebrate turning 2!! After that, they indulged in muffins and hot chocolate for a lovely morning tea, and all of this was before lunch!

It was wonderful brief Jo Palmer MLC about all the activities happening at Eskleigh, the new respite,SDA and other contemporary services Eskleigh now provides.

Eskleigh holds a special place in my heart.

It was wonderful to catch up with Sophie to hear how the organisation continues to grow and support Tasmanians living with disability, almost 80 years after it was first established.

Here's to the Eskleigh Cup! (In celebration of the Launceston Cup).

Our amazing staff and the people we support dressed to the nines in their finest racing attire to celebrate our very own cup.

Everyone enjoyed a delicious morning tea and participated in some horse racing activities. A special shoutout to Carl and Ray, our talented community shed volunteers, for crafting the hobby horses!

Recently, Lizzie assisted Teena by putting her washing on the clothes line! Later, she went out shopping and was quite taken with the water feature at Allans Garden Centre Prospect Lizzie enjoyed putting her hand out and brushing some of the plants as she went past. Afterwards, Lizzie had morning tea at McDonald's.

We have our community garden sign-up day tomorrow! Thinking back on how it started ...it went from an idea to applying for funding - from working out budgets and project plans, and then the absolute joy of getting the funding!!
We then started the hard work of transforming the site from a bare patch of ground to what we have today. We have had so much support in getting to this point - a huge thank you to everyone who has helped along the way.
Our vision is to create a friendly space for community gardeners to gather, learn, and garden.

Hope to see you tomorrow at Eskleigh from 10-11am. We will have a delicious morning tea together.
