Group & centre activities

Shared interests can make it easier to start a conversation and feel part of a group. We discuss activities that suit your goals, preferences and support needs, with the setting and arrangements confirmed before you join. Enquire about group activities across Greater Melbourne, Melbourne’s western suburbs, Wyndham and Geelong.

Support for your everyday life

Enjoy doing something together. Join shared activities, explore interests and connect with other people in a supported setting.

  • Social games and shared interests

    Group activities that create opportunities to chat, take turns and enjoy time with others.

  • Creative activities

    Exploring suitable art, craft or other creative interests with the support needed to participate.

  • Community outings together

    Shared visits to suitable local places or events, with access and support arrangements discussed first.

  • Practical activities in a group

    Taking part in an agreed shared task, such as preparing a simple meal or organising an activity.

  • Choosing what comes next

    Expressing your interests and feedback so future activities can reflect the people taking part.

We agree on the activities, suitability and scope with you before support begins.

A personal approach to your support

AN ILLUSTRATIVE EXAMPLE

You might be interested in a small shared activity but unsure about joining a group. A conversation about the people, setting and assistance available can help you decide whether the activity feels right before you make arrangements.

Support shaped around you

The right support begins with understanding your goals, the things that matter to you and how you prefer to be supported.

Meeting people through an interest

You would like to take part in an activity with others who enjoy similar things.

A supported group setting

You want help to join in, communicate preferences and feel comfortable alongside other participants.

More variety in your week

You are interested in social, cultural or recreational activities that fit your routine.

Check the activity and setting

We confirm the actual activity, location, timing and accessibility rather than assuming every option is available locally.

Discuss the group and assistance

Ask about the group format, the support provided and any individual needs that should be considered.

Plan attendance

Travel, personal requirements and additional activity expenses are clarified before you agree to attend.

Making support work for you

We discuss the details together, so you know what to expect before you decide.

Funding and costs

Group support needs to fit your disability-related needs and NDIS plan. The assistance provided and the group arrangement affect how the service is agreed and charged.

We explain the service costs and any separate items such as materials, entry fees or meals. These personal activity expenses may need to be paid separately from your NDIS-funded assistance.

Before you decide, we explain your service agreement, how to request changes and how to give feedback.

We support people across Greater Melbourne, including Melbourne’s western suburbs, Wyndham, Point Cook, Werribee, Tarneit and Truganina, as well as Geelong. Tell us your suburb so we can confirm local availability.

YOUR NEXT STEP

How do I get started?

  1. Tell us what you need

    Share your goals, suburb and preferred way to contact you. You can involve someone you trust.

  2. Agree on the details

    Together, we confirm suitable support, available times, funding and costs. We explain the service agreement before you decide.

  3. Start with a clear plan

    Once you agree, we arrange the first visit and explain how to ask questions, give feedback or change your support.

You can contact us yourself, or ask a family member, carer or support coordinator to help. An enquiry does not book a service.
