🔧 See it early? Report it!

A dripping tap or a small leak might not seem important at first, but little maintenance issues can quickly turn into bigger problems.

If you notice something that needs attention in your home, please let the ACHC team know as soon as possible. Reporting maintenance early helps us arrange repairs sooner, prevent further damage and keep your home safe and comfortable.

Thinking of welcoming a pet into your home?

Before bringing your new furry friend home, remember to speak with your Housing Officer first and complete a Pet Application Form so we can guide you through the process.

The ACHC team stepped out for a walk along the Cairns Esplanade this week, a simple way to check in and ask, R U OK?

💛 R U OK? Day

Sometimes a simple question can make a big difference: “Are you OK?”

This R U OK? Day, we’re encouraging everyone in our community to check in with the people around them. You don’t need to have all the answers, just taking the time to listen and genuinely connect can mean more than you realise.

Start a conversation. Listen with care. Stay connected. 💛

💙 National Child Protection Week | 6–12 September 2026

Every child deserves to feel safe, supported and cared for.

National Child Protection Week is a reminder that looking out for children starts with all of us - checking in, listening, speaking up and creating communities where families feel supported.

We know how important a safe and stable home can be for a child and their family. It gives them a place to feel secure, grow, learn and just be themselves.

This week, let’s keep the conversation going and keep looking out for one another. 💙

🚌 Positive Ageing Expo! 🚌

Thanks to the support of the Kinetic Bus Service Grant, some of our senior tenants were able to attend Cairns Regional Council's Positive Ageing Expo and enjoy a day of connection, information and community.

Our tenants were incredibly grateful for the opportunity, with many sharing how much they enjoyed the experience and would love to attend similar events in the future.

A big thank you to Kinetic for helping make the day possible! 💙
