Social and community participation
Accompanied outings, local groups, hobbies and social activities, with help planning the trip and joining in. Across the Sunshine Coast, Noosa and Gympie.
What we can help with
Outings you choose
A worker can help plan and accompany you to the library, a café, the cinema, a community event or another place you’d like to visit.
Groups, hobbies and events
Explore a local sports club, art class, faith gathering or cultural event. Ask about help with registration, equipment or attending an early session.
Getting comfortable somewhere new
Look at the route or venue in advance, practise introductions or plan what to do if it gets too noisy or busy.
One-to-one or small-group support
Discuss whether you’d prefer individual help or support in a small group, and adjust the approach after you’ve tried an activity.
A day at your pace.
Here’s one example of how you could get started. Every plan is different, so take what’s useful and leave the rest.
Talk to us about your weekPick something you enjoy
Start with a place, group or activity you’d like to visit or return to.
Plan the outing
Talk through how you’d get there, how long you’d like to stay and what would make it easier to join in.
Make it your own
Decide whether you’d like to go again, try something different or change the support next time.
Tell us what you enjoy.
We start by listening. Tell us about the places, people and activities you’d like more of, and what has made getting out hard before. You can also tell us how you prefer to communicate, or what would make the first conversation easier.
Common questions
Can I start with somewhere I already know?
Yes. You can start by telling us about a familiar place or activity you’d like support to get back to.
Do you cover my area?
We support people across the Sunshine Coast, including Nambour and Noosa, and in Gympie. Browse our service areas or ask about where you live.
Can I ask how this fits my NDIS plan?
Tell us which support you’re looking for and what your plan says. We can talk about the service and help you work out what questions to take to your plan contact.
