Inclusive Social and Community Participation

Develop your physical and intellectual strength through collaboration and connection. Our assistance with social and community participation fosters fun, friendships and cultural sensitivity.

Did you know there is a direct correlation between how connected you feel to others and your physical and mental health? Psychological and medical research has demonstrated this conclusively. Our emotional well-being can be shattered without social connections and a robust support system. 

​

At Care Takers WA, we know the importance of having a sense of belonging. Our social support gets you out of the house and into the community, giving you easy access to engage in activities. 

Social Activities for Disabled People

Humans are built for meaningful social contact. There are serious consequences when we don’t get enough. It’s hard to stay on track mentally and it compromises our bodies physically. 

 

When you live with disabilities, socialising in society can be more challenging. At some point, loneliness and feeling a lack of support may kick in. It’s our job to understand your concerns and connect you to people, activities and experiences that positively impact your life. 

 

Through personalised assistance with social and community participation, you can join a range of recreational and group activities. 

 

The benefits include:

 

  • Connect to like-minded people in your community

  • Interact and exchange ideas

  • Learn and develop your personal skills

  • Actively engage in community life

  • Meet your unique preferences and needs

  • Enhance your quality of life

Helping You Make (and Keep) Connections

Making and maintaining connections means different things to different people. It could be forming new friendships, finding skill-building activities or networking for employment opportunities. Maybe you want to find local services for extra support or attend regular coffee catch-ups at your local cafe. We connect you with your community according to what you want to achieve. 

 

Our social support program creates a communal interaction between those with disabilities and the community. We provide a platform for networking with people of the same age and needs and arrange accommodation stays with host families.

Social interactions help by:

 

  • Offering safe and inclusive environments to interact in

  • Building better networks and support systems

  • Reducing long-term reliance on others 

  • Keeping mental health issues at bay, such as anxiety, depression and loneliness 

  • Encouraging community diversity

  • Aiding in social, community and workplace participation 

  • Feeling more confident and comfortable in social settings

  • Increasing emotional awareness and self-regulation
