Castle is a not-for-profit organisation, formed by members of the community, to support disadvantaged people in our community.​

We opened our door as Castle Personnel Services in King Street Newcastle in 1991 with the goal to place 30 people with mild intellectual, sensory and physical disabilities into open employment.

For 35 years, Castle has helped people with disabilities, mental health conditions, chronic illnesses and injuries find work and live meaningful lives.
