Increasing awareness and understanding about cancer

TOBY'S HOUSE, ADELAIDE

Welcome to Toby’s House

Located in Mile End, Adelaide, Toby’s House offers free accommodation for families from rural and regional Australia, letting them stay together when one member of the family is having cancer treatment in Adelaide.

ABOUT TOBY'S HOUSE

This comfortable house is only a few years old and is impeccably presented. Located at the back of a small group of houses, it’s accessed by a private driveway so it offers fantastic privacy and security. It features a fantastic open-plan living/dining/kitchen area, with plenty of room for the whole family to enjoy time together or pursue their own projects. The living area leads to a small courtyard and private garden.

WHAT'S NEARBY

  • Adelaide’s city centre is just a short drive away
  • You can walk to Adelaide’s famous Central Market in less than an hour
  • The Hilton Shopping Centre, which features a supermarket, pharmacy and other shops, is less than five minutes’ walk away
  • Three major hospitals are located within roughly a 15-minute drive: the Royal Adelaide Hospital and St Andrew’s Hospital in Adelaide itself, and The Queen Elizabeth Hospital a little further out

WHAT WE SUPPLY

We provide a weekly linen and cleaning service, so the only thing you’ll need to provide is food and consumables.

THINGS TO NOTE

There’s very little traffic noise at this property, thanks to its secluded location. However, it is located in a flight path so there’s regular noise disruption from planes overhead. While this is minimal within the house, it is a consideration for anyone with noise sensitivity.

Help us provide a free place for people to stay with their loved ones when one of them is having specialist cancer treatment far from home
