Are you or a loved one gaining support through NDIS funding? The NDIS was established in 2013 and was designed to ensure that everyone - regardless of their disability - could achieve the best quality of life possible. Far from a cookie cutter solution, NDIS services are based around the individual and their specific needs. This means that you always get the service and support you require without any issues or concerns.
One of the key elements of an NDIS care plan is community participation. In this guide, we’ll explain everything that could be involved in community participation, how it might benefit you and the activities that you can explore with this possibility.
You might assume that a community participation program will be based on a set schedule, specific goals, or a plan that has worked before. Nothing is further from the truth. Instead, we will always base community participation plans around the needs, interests and goals of the individuals. This all stems back to everything we learn about you during the initial consultation. We’ll use this information to put together a community participation program that includes your objectives, your desires, and your passions.
We have experienced creating innovative community participation NDIS plans and will always remain totally flexible to your needs.
There are many benefits of receiving funded assistance with social and community participation. Here are some of the best reasons to explore this possibility.
First, community participation NDIS services will provide you with the opportunity to
socialise with your peers in a comfortable, friendly environment. You will be around people
who are your age and may even share your life experiences or have similar health conditions
and disabilities. Socialisation is crucial to wellbeing and helps people improve their
physical or mental health. It could ensure that they feel better about themselves because
they will always be working towards new and interesting goals.
Of course, this level of socialisation also provides opportunities where individuals can
build relationships and grow in different groups. This can lead to long lasting friendships
with peers. Again, this becomes easier because you’ll be spending time around people who
share your interests and are on your wavelength. It’s possible that you have struggled to
build relationships in the past. Social community programs are a great way to build up this
skill and ensure that you are able to form long lasting connections with lots of different
people.
Another reason to engage with social activities is to expand your horizons and improve your skills in a certain area. There are lots of examples of this. For instance, you might use your community participation funding to be a part of a theater group. If so, joining the group could help you hone your acting, singing or dancing skills. It could also help you feel more comfortable performing in front of an audience or improvising. The possibilities for learning new skills here are virtually endless. It’s just a matter of finding the right group that fuels your needs and provides you with the full support that you are looking for.
As mentioned, there are countless possibilities when it comes to the type of activities that you can explore with NDIS community participation services. It’s just a matter of thinking outside the box and exploring that truly interests you and captivates your attention. Whether that’s dancing, yoga, photography, horse riding, or anything else you can think of, these options and so much more are all available for you to explore. Opportunities like this can be discussed when you are setting up your car plan. Remember, as your care providers, we will be there every step of the way and always provide you with the routes you need to explore new passions.
Good mental health will always be key to achieving goals and reaching your full potential in your community. Our carers will strive to ensure that you do get the support that you need to take care of your mental health. We are a shoulder to lean on and will always be read to lend a helping hand whenever you require. We have a strong history of providing mental health support to people with a wide range of disabilities. Whether you are experiencing a long term disability or sudden change in mobility it can take a toll on your mental health. By remaining active in a community, it helps relieve tension and anxiety.
A key part of good mental health is ensuring that you feel valued and that your opinions matter. You need to feel as though you are heard and this is always going to be a big part of a community participation element within your care plan. As your care providers we will work to ensure that you always feel heard and are surrounded by people who can provide you with the right support. We want to ensure that you feel comfortable enough to express your opinions and make your own decisions where it counts.
Another reason to explore community participation is that you’ll have the opportunity to become one of the team. You’ll discover how it feels to be part of something bigger than you. As your care providers we will help ensure that you stay in the loop and always receive important updates about what’s happening in your chosen community. We will also ensure that we help you come up with new and creative ways to achieve any goals that you can think of related to your community.

All of these possibilities can be funded through your care package. This includes everything from the fee to join the group and the cost of the transport required to get you there and back.
You could also think about joining a local course. Community participation services do provide you with the unique option to sign up for personal development courses. These are useful because they will help you to expand your horizons and pursue new paths or journeys in your life. It can also help you improve your skills in key areas and thus lead to greater improvements in your life.
There are lots of local trips and outings that can be part of your community participation plan. This could include trips to the cinema, the local library, a concert, or the theater. This all depends on what you are interested in and how you would like to spend your free time. We are happy to create a plan and a schedule that fits in perfectly with your desired lifestyle.

You may not be aware of the different holiday camps that are available in your local area. Our team can help you research the different options available and find the right choice that interests you.
