Who We Support

The Christmas season is a beautiful time of year. Families visit, friends drop by, kids are home from school and the days are filled with celebrations, shared meals and precious moments. But with all the joy comes the reality that the house can get messy very quickly. For many people, especially older Australians, NDIS participants, parents and carers, December can feel like a juggling act. There is food to prepare, visitors to manage, presents to wrap and appointments to fit in, all while trying to keep the home tidy and welcoming.

The good news is that the house does not need to be perfect to feel comfortable. With a few smart routines and low-effort cleaning tricks, you can keep your home looking fresh throughout the holidays without spending hours scrubbing and organising. Here are some of the best time-saving tips that help reduce stress, keep things running smoothly and make your home a warm, inviting space during the busiest time of year.

As the year comes to a close, many of us find ourselves reflecting on what worked well, what felt overwhelming, and what we would like to change in the year ahead. For older Australians, people living with disability, and families who provide care, these reflections are more than a yearly ritual. A safe, clean and well-supported home can make everyday life easier, safer and more enjoyable.

At Sistability, we see every day how domestic cleaning, gardening and in-home support can transform the way people live. As a social enterprise, our work goes beyond tasks. It is about helping people stay safe, maintain dignity and feel genuinely supported. With 2026 approaching, now is the perfect time to think about how a little extra help could make next year calmer, more organised and more enjoyable.

In 2025, Sistability reached an important milestone in our journey: we became a certified social enterprise. For us, this was not a marketing label or a strategic pivot. It was the formal recognition of who we have always been at heart. From day one, Sistability has existed to support people who are often overlooked, create meaningful employment for those who need a hand up, and deliver care with dignity, fairness, and respect.

Now, as we move into 2026, becoming a social enterprise is more than a badge we wear. It is a promise to our clients, partners, staff, and the entire Northern Rivers community that we will continue to put people first. It is a commitment to purpose, not just profit, and to quality care, not shortcuts.
