Scope and Ashcare

For immediate release: Friday 19th August 2011

Scope is intending to manage services currently provided by Ashcare and is working closely with their management and board to develop details around transferring those services to Scope.

Ashcare Incorporated is a small organisation supporting 25 people with high support needs in primarily a supported accommodation service in the eastern suburbs. 
 
Ashcare was founded in 1977 by a group of parents seeking a community living option for their adult children. Ashcare operates 4 supported accommodation houses in the Blackburn, Burwood and Warranwood areas.
 
Scope is continually looking for new opportunities to enhance our services and provide the highest level of support to people with a disability.
