Living well at home, in the town you love
Staying in Place York and Surrounds connects older people with local people and local services, so you can stay in your own home and your own community for as long as possible.
Support at home
We help you find your way through My Aged Care and arrange the local help you need, from cleaning and meals to personal care.
Thursday Bingo
Join us every Thursday afternoon at the Castle Hotel. Great prizes, good company, and every dollar supports local home care.
Get involved
Local people delivering local services is what makes this work. Find out about working or volunteering with us.
How Staying in Place works
Tell us what you need
Have a chat with us about your situation, your experiences and what would make life at home easier.
We help with My Aged Care
If you are over 65, or an Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander person over 50, we can help you apply for a Home Care Package.
Local people provide the care
Once you have a package, or if you choose to self-fund, we coordinate the services you need from trusted local providers.
Bingo with a purpose
Our Thursday Bingo afternoons at the historic Castle Hotel are a York favourite. There are door prizes, raffles and a weekly cash prize, and all proceeds go to Staying in Place Inc.
Every Thursday. Doors open 1pm, eyes down 2pm.
A town worth staying in
York is Western Australia's oldest inland town, with heritage buildings, friendly neighbours and a real sense of community. Staying in Place helps the people who have built this town to keep calling it home.
