More information
CASA is a voluntary organisation, whose goal is to develop friendships between people with disability and volunteers through a variety of activities. CASA was first established in 1981 and since then has introduced new and varied services to people with disability and their families. During our respite care, members with disability, staff and volunteers all live together. During this time we share house activities and various social activities together. Everyone participates in household chores from wash-up to cooking dinner. However its far from all chores as we go out to the cinema, bowling, shopping, walking etc. As we invite a different group of people with disabilities to our house each week, each respite break is made up of many different individuals; therefore each group is very varied. We plan the activities of each group around the personalities and abilities that make up that group.
