Going beyond traditional care

In the heart of Armstrong Creek, Marco Polo Supports are going above and beyond conventional care.

The dedicated team is committed to making a meaningful impact in the lives of individuals with disabilities, a local disability support service that goes beyond traditional care.

Founded by three childhood mates with an unwavering passion for making a difference in the lives of individuals with disabilities, Marco Polo Supports stands as a testament to the transformative power of friendship and shared purpose.

What sets Marco Polo Supports apart is not just their commitment to providing essential care but the unique approach they take in matching clients with support workers. This dynamic team, composed of young, vibrant individuals with diverse backgrounds and interests, ensures that each client finds a companion, mentor, and role model all rolled into one.

The activities organised by Marco Polo Supports are as diverse as their team. From adventurous pursuits like karate and surfing to more serene activities like cooking and attending day to day appointments, the support workers engage with their clients on a personal level. This approach fosters a sense of camaraderie, breaking down barriers and building trust between support workers and those they serve.

At the heart of Marco Polo Supports is their headquarters, a haven designed to cater to the diverse needs and interests of their clients. This multifaceted facility boasts a range of amenities, including a swimming pool and spa for relaxation, a hobby farm with goats and chickens for animal therapy, and a basketball court for those who love sports.

The offerings continue with a cinema room, music room, sensory room, gaming room featuring video games and table tennis, a fully equipped art room, and a kitchen for cooking enthusiasts.

The commitment to inclusivity extends even further with a par three golf hole, a weights gym for fitness enthusiasts, and a dam for fishing and yabbying. These amenities create an environment where individuals with disabilities can explore their interests, build new skills, and enjoy a sense of community in a supportive setting.

Harry, one of the co-founders, invites the community to reach out and discover the exceptional services Marco Polo Supports provides. Whether you’re seeking a support network for yourself or a loved one, Marco Polo Supports is ready to make a positive impact.

In an era where inclusivity and understanding matter more than ever, Marco Polo Supports is proving that a dedicated team with a shared vision can truly make a difference in the lives of those who need it most.
