Blue Mountains Villages
Blue Mountains Villages was established in 1968. Our Mission is to provide our residents – and their families – with an affordable, safe, secure, supportive self-care village that respects individual privacy, promotes choice and wellbeing and encourages community involvement.
Our values are of affordability, community, transparency, Freedom and Respect
As secure, good quality, affordable housing is a basic human right. As a not-for-profit, the Blue Mountains Villages’ original philosophy was to provide affordable housing. As we grow, we aim to maintain that value. We encourage an environment where residents feel safe, secure and confident to enjoy our strong 'community spirit'.
We are accountable to our residents, and operate the Village in an efficient, transparent and easily accessible manner. We respect each other and each individual’s privacy, freedom of choice and level of involvement in our Village community.
