Short-Term Support, Long-Term Benefits

Together Now WA provides short-term accommodation and respite care that benefits both participants and their carers. Our focus is on personalised care, wellbeing, and opportunities for growth.

What is STA & Respite Care?

Sometimes extra support is needed outside the usual routine. Short Term Accommodation (STA), often called respite, provides temporary, personalised support and accommodation away from home.

It gives participants the chance to:

  • Experience a change of environment.
  • Build confidence and independence.
  • Connect socially in safe, supportive ways.
  • It also gives carers a short-term break to rest, recharge, and prevent burnout.

Travel, accommodation, meals, and negotiated activities.

Structured program with clear goals, daily supports, and a summary of progress.

Engaging activities linked directly to the participant’s NDIS plan and capacity-building goals.

How TNWA Does It Differently

  • 1:1 personalised support: We focus on individual needs rather than group formats.
  • Capacity-building: Therapeutic and skill-building activities are part of every stay.
  • Charity-based model: Unlike commercial providers, every surplus is reinvested into community programs, advocacy, and relief.
  • Local advantage: As a Ballajura-based charity, we bring strong local connections and a community-first approach.

Why it Matters

For Participants:

  • Safe, structured support in a new environment.
  • A chance to try independence and build daily living skills.
  • Opportunities for new experiences and social connection.

For Carers:

  • Time to rest and recharge.
  • Support for wellbeing and sustainability of long-term caring roles.
  • Reduced risk of stress and burnout.
