Amicus is excited to offer people in Castlemaine and surrounding districts the opportunity to experience a state-of-the-art facility at the Lions McDonald Hill Respite House - also known as the Melissa Court Respite House - for people with disabilities.
Melissa Court Respite House was funded and launched by Mount Alexander Shire Accommodation and Respite Group (MASARG Inc.) after Mount Alexander became one of the last remaining shires in Victoria without a purpose-built respite facility.
The Mount Alexander Shire Accommodation and Respite Group (MASARG Inc.) is a non-political, independent group of parents, carers and community members working to address the critical need for respite and accommodation infrastructure for people with disabilities in the area.
