Imagine Independence is a leading third sector organisation, passionate about supporting people with mental illness, neurodiversity, learning disabilities, and behaviours that challenge to live as part of their community.

Imagine supports people to live meaningfully by nurturing their individuality and recognising the power of small steps.

Every day, Imagines’ staff and volunteers generously share their experience, knowledge, and talents with the people they support. Through their focused dedication to Imagines’ mission, and the courage to challenge the status quo, people feel valued.
