ABOUT US

HISTORY

Greystanes Disability Services was established in 1958 by a group of parents in the upper Blue Mountains in New South Wales who were concerned by the lack of support for their children with disabilities in their local area. Matron Elizabeth McDonald opened the original “Greystanes Children’s Home” in Leura at the corner of Grose and Megalong Street. At that time, the grey stone building was called “Greystanes”.

Greystanes Disability Services is a not-for-profit community based organisation that supports people who live a with a disability to connect with their chosen communities and to lead the lives of their choice as much as they are able.
