Suitable for
This get away trip is perfect for social interaction and community access.
It has been a decade since the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) Act 2013 was implemented, resulting in a transformational change in the NDIS and the lives of those who use it. Although this has generally been positive, introducing profit-seeking companies, and offering cheaper alternatives, was only a matter of time.
We’re hosting a Family Fun Day to fundraise for the All-Abilities Cranbourne Eagles Football Team. There will be a $2 sausage sizzle, a free jumping castle and car show, as well as $2 face painting and $2 henna body art.
We are proud to be launching our Social Saturday Events at Grattan House, our Respite Accommodation in the city! Each month is a different theme, ranging from Dessert Socials to Pokemon Club Catch Ups. Social Saturdays is a great chance for you to come down to Grattan House and have a fun time meeting other like-minded people.
We are excited for the community to get to know the care manager behind The Disability Company (DisabilityCo), Sarah Canvert, who brings a wealth of expertise and personal experience to the DisabilityCo team. She has 20 years of knowledge and expertise in the disability sector, as well as lived experience with disability having grown up with a brother with autism.
Looking to make new friends and have fun doing Easter activities in the holiday break? Join us at Grattan House in April, where you can celebrate Easter time with our super friendly support workers.
We believe this webinar topic on cultural competency is important to know when dealing with NDIS participants who speak other languages and have different cultural customs and belief systems.
