OUR
NAENAE
BASE
Although our main residential facility is in Naenae, Lower Hutt, Laura Fergusson Trust provides community support across the greater Wellington region, as well as in Manawatu and Wairarapa.
Residential
Our Community Residential Living service supports adults with long-term physical, intellectual, or sensory disabilities to live full and meaningful lives. We help clients work towards personal goals—from skill-building and employment to social connection and community involvement.
Community & Programmes
Beyond residential care, we support people with long-term disabilities to engage confidently and independently in their communities.
We offer specially designed group programmes for the Wellington disability community. These sessions provide a safe and welcoming space to connect, have fun, and reduce social isolation.
Our Home
Our homes are accessible, welcoming, and designed to encourage independence. Whether clients stay long-term or short-term for respite, they receive support with:
Personal care
Meal preparation
Household tasks
Social and community engagement
Skill-building
Access to services like healthcare and banking
We empower people to live as independently as possible with the right care in the right environment.
