We provide a large variety of services for both individual clients and schools. Whilst we started predominantly as a paediatric service, Spot4You provides highly effective treatment for adults as well as for children.

Visiting our clients in the environments in which they spend their time allows us to specifically target their needs in the most relevant way possible.

For over 30 years Scope Home Access has been providing home modification and maintenance services to people over the age of 65 (or over 50 for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people) and to people with a disability. These modifications are based on each individual’s needs and range from simple grab rails or hand-held showers, to large scale bathroom and access modifications. Ultimately the aim is the same: to maximise safety and independence around the home. We recognise that a person’s home and community is an integral part of their support system, along with family, friends and carers. Our vision and mission statements reflect our belief that everyone should have the opportunity to ‘age in place’, surrounded by the comforts of home.
