Care And Compassion In Every Thread

About Us

We’re a laundry and linen service, unlike any other.

Having a member of our family with severe disability, we understand the importance of quality services to assist with daily living and quality of life. Conder House Laundry & Linen Service is a family-focused hospital-grade barrier laundry and linen service that supports individuals in the family home

Our business, envisioned by our Director Cathy Costa opened in 2016. Cathy couldn’t find a linen service to meet her son’s requirements. Her domestic machine couldn’t cope with the volume of washing, nor the bulky waterproof bed pads. Large linen companies wouldn’t take an individual client and she didn’t want the linen in her home to look like a hospital.

Having established the laundry, Cathy then explored other areas that Conder House could service. While Conder House’s main goal is to serve members of our community who would not normally be able to access hospital-grade laundry and linen services, it also has an environmental mission. So, in 2018 the modern cloth nappy service was born to provide a sustainable, reusable nappy option to childcare centres and in-home clients in the Canberra Region.

Cathy’s final vision for Conder House was for it to provide an employment opportunity for her son John, who has severe Autism and intellectual delay. Conder House’s delivery and pick up processes have been designed around John’s abilities, and with assistance from his support workers, he undertakes the deliveries four days per week.

The employment of those who do not have the same opportunities as mainstream employees has been an extension of this vision. Conder House now employs several other staff members with additional needs and we look forward to increasing the team as the business grows.
