Find out what's going on with our Support Services

Last month, I wrote to you excitedly and announced that we were back out and about and providing face to face visits. This month, I have to let you know that we have had to take a cautious step back while the current issues in NSW are being managed. We are providing some limited face to face services where possible, so please be aware we will do our best to accommodate your requests where possible and where safe to do so. As I mentioned in our last newsletter, this is no doubt, our new normal for the foreseeable future.

Here’s what people are saying about our Carer Peer Support Online Sessions

Our Carer Peer Support online sessions are proving a great success. These informal meetings give people the opportunity to exchange ideas and to learn from the experiences of others, from meetings that help carers navigate the NDIS to peer support for younger carers.

Winter Warmer Soup

Ivan, a member of our MND community, has shared his recipe for a delicious soup that can be modified to cater to a variety of tastes and swallowing abilities.

Ivan created this recipe to enable him to still enjoy a hearty soup with his favourite ingredients but has also allowed for his own dietary and swallowing needs.

Tommy Adaptive is available in Australia!

Drawing from his personal experience of having children with autism, Tommy Hilfiger began creating Tommy Adaptive fashion in 2016. Beginning with children’s clothing, the range proved so popular that it has now expanded to adult sizing. Tommy's Adaptive clothing range for men, women and children is now available in Australia.
