Australia’s First Complete
Disability Housing Specialist

Empowered Liveability is one of the first companies to provide complete disability housing solutions that are compliant with the current NDIS Housing regulations.

Welcome

Empowered Liveability was founded with the sole purpose of providing accessible housing for wheelchair users and people with high physical support needs. Our motto is to ‘Live on your own terms’, and that’s why we work collaboratively with our clients to tailor housing solutions to their specific needs so they can fully embrace their desired lifestyle.,

Our exceptional Specialist Disability Accommodation (SDA) homes are located across Victoria, Queensland and Western Australia and our footprint continues to grow. Our SDA dwellings offer ample space and meticulous design to cater for High Physical Support, Fully Accessible, and Improved Liveability needs. Each of our homes features an exclusive room designated for Support Workers, ensuring privacy for tenants when not requiring direct support.

We are a highly ethical company and strong proponents of ensuring that people with a disability have choice and control. We listen to our clients and are always looking at ways to ensure that they are happy, supported and truly feel at home. We welcome you to contact us to discuss your accommodation needs and we look forward to working with you to find a solution that is right for you.

General Manager- Rubix Support

“Nicole is nothing short of amazing! While she has 20 plus years experience in Disability support services she is now a wealth of knowledge in the areas of NDIS SDA and SIL. What inspires me most about Nicole is her passion of supporting people to be living in the home they choose, out of hospital and in to their own home! Nicole’s business is successful because she is truly someone who is in the business because she cares about people.

So if you are looking for SDA options for yourself or a family member or even an investor wanting to know more. Nicole is the lady you need to connect with, you wont be disappointed! It’s been a honor to be a part of her journey of the past 2 decades.”
