Supported Independent Living (SIL)
Home with Heart
At UCC, a home isn’t just a place — it’s where your journey toward independence begins. Being a family-run provider, we bring that sense of belonging and care into everything we do. Our Supported Independent Living (SIL) homes — also known as Permanent Accommodation — combine safe, long-term housing with warm, consistent support, creating spaces that truly feel like home.
We offer 24-hour support in welcoming, group-style homes located across the Hunter region, including Rutherford, Cliffleigh, and Aberglasslyn. With options for under-18s, over-18s, and over-40s, our homes are tailored to meet individual needs, age groups, and routines.
Life in a SIL Home
Living in one of our SIL homes means being part of a household where care and independence go hand in hand. Our team supports with everyday tasks while encouraging choice and self-reliance.
Supports include:
- Cooking and shared mealtimes
- Personal care and daily routines
- Medication prompts and health support
- Household tasks and laundry
- Social and community activities
Every resident is supported in a way that respects their goals, preferences, and personality. Whether that means learning new skills, joining community events, or simply enjoying the comfort of a safe, supportive home — we’re here every step of the way.
