Ex-Service Accommodation
It’s important to belong.
Our ex-service accommodation is for veterans and widows/widowers, and their current partners/carers/dependants.
The common experiences and the lasting impacts of serving in the military forces create a bond of mateship that continues after service is over – something that is poorly understood by the general public.
The same bonds of shared experience hold true for partners and widows/widowers and shared understanding can make a big difference to them.
Accommodation
Vasey RSL Care has 295 rental units at nine locations of varying sizes, from 3 units to 85 units located in the Greater Melbourne area, Geelong, Warrnambool, and Wodonga. All are single storey units.
Affordable
Rental units are offered at well below comparable private rentals in the same areas, and offer greater security of tenure.
The units are well maintained, with Vasey RSL Care taking care of building maintenance and looking after shared areas and grounds.
Community Environment
Residents can be as independent or as social as they like. While most locations have regular events and activities, there is no requirement for residents to take part.
Shared personal experiences form the basis for camaraderie, support, and a respect for traditional values.
Sites with Community Halls
Our larger villages at Cheltenham, Croydon, Geelong and Frankston South each has a community hall which has a library and kitchen facilities and is available for residents to use for events and activities.
Eligibility
Our units are open to people of any age who:
- Served in the Australian or Allied Forces, and/or
- Widows/widowers of Australian or Allied Force members
- And their current dependants (eg partner/carer or dependant children)
Note: priority is given to those in greatest need.
