The not-for-profit now has an office at 16 Bridge St East, headed up by Benalla local Mandy Whitechurch.
Mandy, who’s a client service manager at InLife, knows first hand the importance of accessing high-quality disability support.
She’s the mother of two sons with a rare degenerative disease called Niemann-Pick disease type-C, sometimes referred to as childhood Alzheimer’s.
Mandy is also the founder of the Australian NPC Disease Foundation.
“It’s great that InLife is expanding in Benalla and, after eight years in the region, now has a place to call home in the centre of town,” she said.
“Having an office in the heart of Benalla means our clients and team members will have a place not only to work, but to meet and come together.
“We also welcome members of the local community to drop by our office and say hi.”
InLife specialises in providing disability support for people with frequent and often complex needs.
The organisation now operates out of Benalla, Mansfield, Yackandandah and Wodonga.
InLife chief executive David Clarke said the organisation valued having bricks and mortar offices because of the collaboration it inspired.
“We are so proud to be opening a Benalla office — it's a region where we have continued to grow over the past eight years,” he said.
“It’s great that our team members now have a physical space there where they can come together.”
