Australian summer is unparalleled. Balancing on a surfboard, wandering through an art museum, or spending time with wildlife are just a few of the many unique possibilities. It’s time to put on some sunscreen, grab a hat, and take advantage of everything that Australia has to offer.
At 9Dcare, we collaborate with our participants to create specialised support plans that give them access to the care and support they require for their individual requirements while also ensuring that they get the most out of their NDIS funding.
Funding for social and community participation is allocated separately under theCore Supports Budget and the Capacity Building Support Budget of the NDIS and may be utilised for a variety of purposes.
As we are enjoy the warmer months in Australia, support workers and participants can now take advantage of more community participation activities.
Your Social and Community Participation funds can be used for a wide range of activities, including the following:
Even though there is always work to be done, there are now many more chances than there were in the past for people with disabilities to participate in athletics. Wheelchair users and other athletes with reduced mobility are now much better catered for in a variety of sports, including horseback riding and sailing, among others.
If playing sports is the type of activity you love, you could enlist the help of a support worker who will assist you.
The majority of Australia’s national parks are accessible, making them among the best in the world. There are wheelchair-accessible pathways in several of Australia’s national parks, and some even provide Trail Riders for free use. With the help of Trail Riders, people with mobility issues can access trails and walkways, including stairways, that are inaccessible to wheelchairs.
People of all ages and abilities can enjoy visiting zoos, and many of them feature wide pathways that are ideal for wheelchair access. While most people probably already own a wheelchair or motorised scooter, many zoos across Australia provide wheelchair and motorised scooter rental, free admission for caregivers, access for assistance dogs, and accessible facilities. Some zoos require a 72-hour notice period for assistance dogs because certain precautions may need to be taken and some areas may be restricted for safety reasons depending on the individual zoo policy. Some zoos offer play activities for kids with physical, sensory, cognitive, and intellectual challenges, like Adelaide Zoo.
An excellent way to beat the summer heat is to visit museums, art galleries, theatres, and other cultural destinations. There are many museums, art galleries, and other art venues to select from in Australia, and many of them have been created as inclusive spaces that are open to everyone.
Spending the day at the beach is very much a part of Australian culture. As we know, Australia has some of the most beautiful beaches in the world. However, not all beaches are accessible to everyone, but now most of the beaches provide accessibility by providing ramps, wheelchair beach mats, and accessible changing rooms and showers.
Activities or support programs can also be tailored to a participant’s age. From assisting participants to the local playground, to young adults to concerts, to adults and seniors to visit their friends or even grab a coffee, this is included.
Australia has so much to offer—the things we’ve included are merely the tip of the iceberg. It’s crucial to keep in mind that you should always be prepared, whether you’re basking in the sun by the beach or in the national parks or taking refuge inside at the galleries and museums from the heat. You can help guarantee that you have the best time while remaining safe during the summer heat by packing items like a water bottle to stay hydrated, sunscreen, a hat, and other personal items that you may need during your summer day out.
In conclusion, there are a ton of opportunities for engaging in social and community activities. Let us work with you to tailor an ideal day out.
