Witmore has been providing supported employment and programs to people with a disability since 1958

​​Our story began more than 60 years ago, at a time when people with a disability had few opportunities. Witmore was created from the voices of two families in the Singleton region in 1958; the Witt and the Moore families. These two courageous families dared to dream big for their children; they rallied together and opened the first school in our region for children with a disability. Then as these children grew older, they opened the first supported workshop.

Today, Witmore continues to walk in their footsteps and we now offer a diverse range of services including:
​
Community participation
Social events
Supported holidays
1:1 supports
Personal care
Respite
Supported employment
Hospitality services
​Coordination of supports
