Social outings
Coffee, lunch, the shops, the movies, the beach — company and practical support for the things you enjoy.
Our services
Community Inclusion & Social Activities
Staying part of your community — the coffee, the club, the class, the volunteering — with whatever support makes it possible.
- Built around your interests
- 1:1 or small group support
- Skill building included
The point isn't the outing. It's staying connected.
Isolation does real damage, and it creeps in quietly — a group you stopped going to, a friend you stopped visiting because the trip was too hard to organise. Community support exists to remove that logistical barrier, not to fill a calendar with activities somebody else chose.
So we start with what you actually enjoy. Your worker goes with you, does as much or as little as you need on the day, and works towards you needing them less — helping you learn the bus route, order at the counter, or manage the group booking yourself.
This is usually the right fit if
- You've dropped activities you used to enjoy because getting there became too hard
- You want to build confidence doing things independently in public
- You're new to an area, or your social circle has shrunk
- You want to volunteer, study or join a group but need support to start
Good community support works itself out of a job. If you need us less this year than last, something has gone right.
— How we approach community access

Volunteering & work readiness
Finding a placement, getting there, and building the confidence and routine that come with it.
Travel training

Getting started
How we set this up with you
-
1
Talk about interests
Not services — interests. What you used to do, what you'd like to try, what you've missed.
-
2
Plan the practicalities
Transport, cost, accessibility, timing and how much support you want on the day.
-
3
Matched worker
Someone whose interests and personality actually fit yours, not just whoever is free.
-
4
Build independence
We step back as your confidence grows, and review what you want to do next.
Common questions
About this service
You cover your own entry fees, meals and tickets, and your funding covers the support hours. Your worker's own costs are never passed on to you — we'll confirm exactly how this works before your first outing.
Yes, where it suits everyone involved. Small group supports can stretch your funding further and some people much prefer the company. It's your call, and you can switch.
Then we try something else. Nothing is locked in, and no one is going to be disappointed in you for changing your mind about a class.
