Who Are We?
Blue House Supported Experiences is run by the husband-and-wife team of Neil and Rani, residents of the beautiful town of Metcalfe in Central Victoria, where they grow delicious organic food and share their little blue farmhouse with a gorgeous whippet and the worlds cutest cat!
NEIL FOLEY
Neil has worked in the disability space for more than two decades and has a passion for providing fun, motivating experiences for participants to meet the goals identified by them in their NDIS plans.
Neil is a huge sports nut but is also very connected to music and the arts, particularly cinema, an area in which he also worked for many years.
Neil is passionate about the outdoors. He loves gardening, fishing, camping, hiking – anything that connects him to nature and the great outdoors. Whether it’s helping you to set up your home veggie patch, a day at the footy, netball or soccer or a fishing & camping trip, or a night watching your favourite band, Neil would love to work closely with you to tailor experiences and activities to help you achieve your goals and ambitions.
RANI WATTS
Rani has worked in the health industry for more than two decades, initially in the capacity of medical research but, more recently with patients undergoing intensive medical therapies and interventions.
Rani discovered that her interaction with patients was where her passions lay – in human connection, and in the commitment of working closely with people to deliver high quality services and outcomes.
Like Neil, Rani has a passion for the outdoors. Rani believes that her strong connection to art, music and culture has been key to her own growth and, as such, is committed to providing access to them for participants of Blue House Supported Experiences.
Rani has organized visits to galleries, theatres, concerts, gigs, outdoor markets, and eateries across the state, and has an encyclopedic knowledge of Central Victorian op shops unlike almost anyone on the planet!
Rani is a nature lover and gardener extraordinaire – she is a multi-faceted, multitasker who loves a laugh and whether it’s for a few hours, a day or a weekend, she is committed to supporting you to realize your goals and passions.
