Tennyson is a small, tranquil suburb on the southern bank of the Brisbane River, around 7 km south-west of the city centre. Its streets carry literary names drawn from the poet Lord Tennyson, and the suburb is best known for the Queensland Tennis Centre, built on the former power station site and host of the Brisbane International each January. Bordered by Yeronga, Yeerongpilly and Sherwood, Tennyson is a peaceful, low-density residential pocket with a strong riverside character.
Tennyson's quiet setting is complemented by good access to services in the neighbouring suburbs of Yeronga, Yeerongpilly and Sherwood, where shops, allied health and community facilities are close by. Bus routes and nearby rail stations link residents to medical and disability services across southern Brisbane. The Queensland Tennis Centre and local riverside parks add recreation options, while the suburb's calm streets suit participants who value a settled, low-key environment for everyday life and support.
Supportr provides NDIS support in Tennyson through a small, reliable team, so participants are supported by familiar people rather than a changing roster. We take the time to understand each person's routines, goals and preferences, then build support to match. Whether someone needs daily living assistance, in-home support or help getting out into the community, our team stays consistent week to week, giving Tennyson participants and their families the steady, trusted support that makes a real difference.
