WHO ARE WE?
Lifelong Care for Children and Adults with Profound Intellectual Disabilities
For more than five decades, LITTLE EDEN has been home to 300 residents with profound intellectual disabilities. Some live with the effects of genetic conditions, others with foetal alcohol syndrome, trauma or abuse. What they share is the need for lifelong care
and the right to be loved, respected and celebrated.
At LITTLE EDEN, every day is a journey of resilience and joy. From toddlers to seniors, our residents teach us lessons about the human spirit,
the value of life and unconditional love.

WITH YOUR SUPPORT, EVERY LIFE CAN THRIVE
Government funding only covers a fraction of what it takes to provide 24-hour care, therapy and medical support. Fundraising bridges the gap and makes dignity, comfort and growth possible for every resident.
Your support isn’t charity – it’s a promise that every life entrusted to LITTLE EDEN is lived with love and purpose.
How can you help make that promise real? Whether you give time, kindness or contribution, you’re part of this shared journey.
A Testament to Our Team
This recognition reflects the exceptional dedication of our entire team – from direct care staff to management – who work tirelessly to provide compassionate, professional care. The Gold Award validates our mission to create a nurturing environment where every resident can thrive with dignity and respect.
This award reinforces our position as Gauteng’s premier provider of specialised care for individuals with profound intellectual disabilities, giving families confidence in choosing LITTLE EDEN for their loved ones.
