Armadale, Australia Dale Cottages Inc. Full time

The Dale Cottages story is one rich in values of care, equity, dignity, innovation, participation, volunteerism, and hard work. As a Not-for-Profit Organisation, it is no surprise that these values continue to underpin our work since 1957. In 1956 the community of Armadale and Kelmscott recognised the need to provide accommodation for elderly residents. From the first public meeting it was clear that the community of Armadale and Kelmscott would make this project happen and to this day we hold fast to the principal that Dale Cottages is an organisation that values all community members. In October 1959 the first duplex opened in John Street Armadale. Since then, our organisation has grown in its mission to care for all community groups.
