Bayley House offers a warm, vibrant and close-knit community.
As a for-purpose organisation with experience spanning seven decades, we thrive on supporting the wellbeing of people with intellectual disability as they live, learn, create and belong.
We harness individual talents, energy and enthusiasm to provide life skills, stimulating experiences and new opportunities through strengths-based and person-centred active support.
High quality, accredited courses and in-house activities for learners at any level.
Capacity building is vital for all of us. While learning underpins all our activities, we also have specific education programs.
