What this service is

Structured small-group sessions in a friendly, accessible setting where you can socialise, learn and practice skills with support. Sessions are interest-led, paced gently, and focused on confidence, routine and connection.

Who it’s for

NDIS participants who enjoy doing things with others—in a calm, supported environment—while building practical skills for home, study, work and community life.

What we do (examples)

• Creative & social clubs: art/craft, music, cooking, gardening, games & trivia

• Life-skills workshops: budgeting, meal planning, home routines, communication

• Digital & study support: basic computer/phone skills, emails, safe online use

• Health & movement: gentle fitness, stretches, relaxation & mindfulness

• Community outings (group): libraries, galleries, parks, markets and local events

Group sizes are small (e.g., 1:2, 1:3) so everyone gets time and support. 1:1 can be arranged where funded.

What you get

• A Participation Plan matching your goals and interests

• Optional door-to-door transport or travel training (plan-dependent)

• Progress notes you can share with family or your coordinator

Benefits you’ll notice
