Since opening its doors as Yalundah Services back in 1955, Vantage Incorporated has come a long way. These days Vantage Inc is a service provider for people with disabilities offering both day placements for those adults with high support needs as well as employment in a supported environment for those people who are work ready who may have tried or are working their way to open employment.

Outlook and ACCESS are both facilities that offer recreational and lifestyle opportunities for those with higher support needs, offering access to the wider community either individually or in a group environment. Our fully qualified staff ensure an enjoyable and safe place in which to offer support.
