If you have any questions about the Oaks Liberty Towers Apartment or you are interested in staying, please call our Campbelltown office on 8367 6088.
Advocacy
Sometimes you may feel having someone represent and support you through an issue or problem is better than doing it alone. A person who provides such support is called an advocate. If you feel that you want a person to negotiate or talk on your behalf, Beyond Blindness can direct you to an appropriate Advocacy Agency. Alternatively, you may have a family member or friend who could be your advocate.
