Over time, it transformed into a comprehensive disability services provider, broadening its scope to include adults. Thanks to a significant bequest, the organisation moved to Mosman Park, where it operates today, delivering diverse services to individuals with disabilities. Rocky Bay recently marked its 80th anniversary. |
