From beachfront parks and the Williamstown Botanic Gardens, to the dining scene of Nelson Place & Douglas Parade, your days at Empress are easily filled. Just journey outside!

From Empress, its just 5 mins to Williamstown railway station and 9km from the Melbourne CBD. This is a place to savour moments of serenity and panoramic vistas, as well as the lifestyle that a highly connected address affords.

The interiors have been thoughtfully designed to take full advantage of breathtaking bay scenes and abundant natural light. Extensive glazing to all apartments draws the views into the interior spaces, while the dual and corner aspects layouts are designed to capture the sea breezes.

Our apartments feature customisable kitchens, bathrooms and laundries, and wheelchair accessible private outdoor areas.

Your NDIS plan revolves around your personal life goals and aspirations. It is crafted based on the information you share during your planning session with your Local Area Coordinator (LAC). Within your plan, you will find a breakdown of the various supports required to help you reach your goals, along with the specific funding allocated to each support category.

Your NDIS plan is tailored to your needs and is reviewed regularly to ensure it continues to meet your changing circumstances and goals.

The NDIS can be difficult to navigate, it's important that you prepare and seek out assistance during your application process.

For more details, see our step by step guide by visting https://www.ndis.gov.au/applying-access-ndis/how-apply.

The NDIS requires service providers to register with them to allow for direct invoicing claims for NDIA-managed clients. However, not all providers opt for registration, meaning there could be a suitable unregistered provider out there that can offer you supports. Access to these unregistered providers is only available if you self-manage your funds or have a Plan Manager.
