COMMUNITY ACCESS

We recognise the value of community participation. It reduces social isolation and fosters a sense of belonging, which is crucial for mental health and overall well-being, and allows individuals to build meaningful connections and friendships.

Engaging in community activities provides opportunities to develop practical life skills, social skills, problem-solving abilities, and communication skills in real-world settings.

As individuals participate more, they gain confidence, self-esteem, and a greater sense of independence. This can lead to increased self-advocacy and control over their own lives.

Community involvement can open doors to education, employment, volunteering, and recreational opportunities, enriching an individual's life and helping them pursue their aspirations.

Active participation of people with disabilities in the community helps to break down barriers, challenge stereotypes, and promote a more inclusive and accepting society.

Regular social interaction and engagement in activities can improve physical health, reduce stress, and promote overall mental well-being.
