Macgregor shares a postcode with our base in Sunnybank Hills, and it is one of the suburbs we support most often. For you, that means workers who are only a few minutes away, more flexibility with visit times, and a team that knows the area.
Local knowledge that makes support easier
Support works better when the person helping you knows the area. Our workers know the quickest way to the shops at Sunnybank and Garden City, and the bus routes along Kessels Road and Mains Road.
That matters for transport and community participation in particular. A worker who knows that a class is at the local community hall, or which café has step-free access, spends their time with you rather than on the map.
A diverse community
Macgregor and the suburbs around it are among the most culturally and linguistically diverse in Queensland. Our team speaks Urdu, Hindi, Dari, Hazaragi and Persian as well as English. If it matters to you that your worker shares your language or understands your culture, tell us at the first meeting and we will take it into account when we match you with a worker. For any other language, the Translating and Interpreting Service can call us for you on 131 450.
