The latest news and project team updates
What are the Rowan Apartments?
A life-long positive impact project in Hawke’s Bay
With your help, the modern accessible Rowan Apartments will provide a home for four more flatters (residents) living with complex physical disabilities resulting from brain injuries, neurological, or genetic conditions. More than leading accessible accommodation, Rowan Apartments empower choice, dignity, and control.

Accessible design
Designed with accessibility in mind, the apartments aim to empower each flatter by offering a living space that aligns with their unique life. Each of the two buildings will be home for two flatters with their own bedroom and ensuite and a shared living space.

Specialist support
The apartments are modern, well-equipped homes designed to meet individual specialist support needs like the structural requirements needed for hoists and ramps.

Future-proof
By future-proofing these apartments and planning with robustness and flexibility in mind, this project showcases a leading approach for accessible housing.
Why build?
Everybody deserves to have a meaningful life in their community
Society has shifted its attitudes and hopes for people living with disabilities. The focus has moved towards citizenship and self-determination. As services become more person-directed, the emphasis is on offering greater control and choice over living environments.
Rowan Apartments aims to achieve this for four more people by offering a typical, modern, living environment that meets each person’s individual support needs and encourages community connection.

Combat a critical need
The housing shortage in Hawke’s Bay is well documented but this is even more critical for people who need accessible homes.
The critical shortage of accessible housing in Hawke’s Bay underscores the pressing need for viable solutions. We are committed to building accessible housing in response to this challenge.
Rowan Apartments is already standing as a beacon of inclusivity and is a positive stride toward addressing the urgent shortage.

Build suitable disability housing
Right now, over 35 younger adults living with complex physical disabilities are staying in aged care facilities because there’s nowhere else to go. There’s no one that can support their complex physical needs.
Public health waiting lists further highlight the heavy demand for housing options that meet the complex needs of younger physically disabled adults. Every year we also hear from ageing parents who care for their adult disabled children and are challenged with finding a suitable life-long home that meets their needs.
