The outcomes pursued by Myrtle Cottage Group Inc are:
Participants pay a client contribution fee for each day attended.
When members go on outings, the cost of these is determined by the venue, with only the actual cost incurred e.g. Meal at a club, entry fee being charged.
Myrtle Cottage receives funding from Department of Health and Ageing, Commonwealth Home Support Program (CHSP).
Myrtle Cottage is a registered NDIS provider.
A significant part of our operating income comes from sources like local businesses, individual donations and members’ contributions.
While a full time CEO is responsible for day to day operations, Myrtle Cottage is governed by a Board of Management. Nominations for membership of the Board are accepted prior to the holding of the Annual General Meeting each year.
A Myrtle Cottage Advisory Committee is elected from the membership and volunteers with elected members of that committee meeting quarterly. Transport is provided for those elected to attend meetings where required.
