Celebrating International Day of People with Disability

Celebrating International Day of People with Disability with Somerville Community Housing! 

On 3 December, we unite to recognise the International Day of People with Disability. At Somerville Community Housing, we embody “the courage to be…”— a commitment to creating supported homes that empower and celebrate the unique abilities of every individual.

 Home is Where Courage Thrives

For us, it’s not just about providing housing; it’s about fostering a home where everyone feels valued, respected, and empowered. Our commitment to accessibility and personalised support ensures each participant has “the courage to be…” themselves in an environment that celebrates diversity.

Community that Cares

Together, we’ve built a community that extends beyond physical structures. It’s a community that understands the strength of diversity and the power of unity. Our participants aren’t just neighbours; they’re friends, advocates, and a source of inspiration.

Raising awareness and breaking down Barriers

Today, let’s amplify our voices to raise awareness and break down the barriers faced by people with disability. Through education, understanding, and compassion, we strive for a world where everyone has “the courage to be…” themselves, regardless of ability.

Join Us in Celebrating Abilities

Join us in celebrating the abilities and achievements of the remarkable individuals we serve. Share your stories, spread awareness, and let’s continue working towards a future where inclusivity is not just a goal but a reality for all.

Thank You for Your Support

Thank you to our supporters, partners, and the Somerville community for being a crucial part of our journey. Your support enables us to make a meaningful impact in the lives of those we care for.

This International Day of People with Disability, let’s reflect, celebrate, and renew our commitment to building a world where everyone has “the courage to be…”
