About Us

Mackay Lifestyle Choices is owned and operated by Don and Fiona Gipson. We have a long history of working in the region’s disability sector. We are passionate about addressing the needs of the disabled and strive to develop programs and plans aimed at ensuring our client’s thrive and achieve success in life.



Our mission is to assist people with a disability to develop organisational and decision-making competence. We offer formal and informal learning activities designed to teach appropriate and meaningful life skills through tailored programs which encourage involvement in the mainstream community. We at Mackay Lifestyle Choices work to promote community awareness of the needs and rights of people with a disability. We also provide relevant information and resources to the wider community. Ultimately we strive to reduce the isolation of our clients and their families and carers through facilitated social and recreational pursuits and respite strategies.
