Willoughby Hostel provides 40 low-care including outreach places managed by Willoughby Retirement Community Association (WRCA) which is a registered Charity set up in the 1970s on parkland in Chatswood donated by Willoughby Council. Adjacent to Willoughby Village, Willoughby Hostel was built in 1991 providing accommodation for seniors with assisted care and sharing of village facilities.
Outreach is a service which provides our hostel care to residents, living in self-contained units, who require help with everyday activities and to facilitate ageing in place. WRCA is able to offer flexibility in accommodation and levels of assistance for individual residents, including couples in two-bedroom units with different health care needs. Willoughby Hostel on Warrah Street provides accommodation, care and dining facilities and is a short pleasant walk from our self-contained units via a covered bridge across Scotts Creek, frequented by ducks and water dragons.
