You can attend all sorts of fun events with a support worker (and even other Like Family Members). Here are some examples!
Mamma Mia: the Musical 🎶
My sister Nadia would like a Carer to accompany her to an Auslan interpreted session of Mamma Mia. You'll need to provide transport to and from the venue.
Buddy for all abilities disco
Looking for a young male Carer who can take my 14yo son Max to an all abilities disco in Ryde. Max may be shy at first, but he'll get on the dance floor with some encouraging!
Watch the Barbie movie with Rachel
