During the application process, we’ll discuss your location preferences and try to match you with suitable available properties.
What support does Edenbridge Living provide in accessing SDA funding?
Our experienced team can guide you through the SDA funding process.

Can I modify my Edenbridge Living SDA home to suit my specific needs?
We understand that each resident’s needs are unique. While our SDA homes are designed to be highly accessible and functional, we’re open to discussing minor modifications that could enhance your living experience. Any significant changes would need to be approved to ensure they comply with SDA regulations and don’t impact the property’s suitability for future residents.
What happens if my support needs change after moving into an Edenbridge Living SDA home?
We recognise that support needs can change over time. If your needs change, we’ll work with you, your support coordinator and the NDIA to reassess your situation.

However, specific arrangements may vary depending on the property type and individual circumstances. We’re happy to discuss your needs and find a solution that works for you.
What kind of ongoing support does Edenbridge Living provide after I move in?
After you move in, our dedicated team remains available to address any housing-related concerns. We provide regular maintenance services, prompt repairs, and ongoing property management.
