Our Original Story - 
 

Cameron is the ‘celebrity’ behind the establishment of Cam Can, as well as his own business, ‘Cam Can Services’.  Cameron offers an amazing story about the positive effect family and friends can have on one person’s life.  Initially committed to a life of despair due to limited options available to him, Cameron is now committed to a life of happiness and achievement.  A focus on his strengths, not his vulnerabilities, now sees Cameron leading a good life.

Cam Can support is individualised to each Member.  We believe in the importance of living in, and being a part of community.  We work hard to find ‘the perfect match’ for Members, believing the initial time finding the right person, leads to far more enduring relationships.

Our Support

Our Organisation

Cam Can was established in 2011 - initially two people, a lounge room, and a lap-top!  Today, we support over 500 people.  We purposefully support ‘one more person at a time’, to ensure our highly individualised approach is never compromised. 

You'll never walk alone

ABOUT US

Cam Can was established in 2011 by Marc and Anthea Lema who felt disillusioned by the traditional services offered to people with disabilities.  Wanting more for their son, Cameron, Marc and Anthea took a leap of faith, and followed their hearts and ideas.  Assuming their frustrations were shared by many others, Marc and Anthea made a bold move by leaving their respective jobs, with the result being the establishment of Cam Can. 

 

What started as two people and a lap-top in a lounge room, has evolved into thousands of lives being changed for the better.  This success has been achieved by not compromising on their initial ideals for people with disability - to create innovative, personalised, flexible and sustainable arrangements that maximise their control over available resources, decision making and choice.

Cam Can would like to acknowledge the traditional custodians of this land and pay our respects to the elders past, present and emerging, for they hold the memories, the traditions, the culture and the hopes of Indigenous Australians.
