When Enlarge Living began, it had a focus on creating quality housing and accommodation options for people with disability. As a registered Specialist Disability Accommodation provider we wanted to give people with disability more opportunities to live in homes that they have had more choice and control over where they want to live, who they want to live with and how they want to live their lives.
However as we have now been on this journey of the NDIS since its full roll out across NSW and Australia, Enlarge Living has become so much more than just another accommodation provider. In 2021 we expanded our operations to start providing Coordination of Supports as we felt we had a lot to offer in that space in terms of experience and also that we don’t provide any other direct services, so could manage any perceived or potential conflicts of interests for our CoS participants.
In 2023 Enlarge Living ventured into the auditing and consultancy space for organisations who were trying to navigate the business landscape of the NDIS world. We wanted to provide other organisations affordable options to get themselves registered for the NDIS and also how to prepare for their NDIS audit compliance requirements. Along with this we have been able to assist businesses to develop their own strategic goals and plans to increase their own footprint and unique place in the expanding NDIS marketplace.
