Social supports for people with disability
If you want to become more active in your community, our Better Lives service on the north side of Brisbane is for you. Our social and community supports for people with disability can assist you to explore what’s possible, achieve your goals and live your best life.
With UnitingCare, it’s all about you. You know better than anyone your own needs and goals, so we’ll work with you to put the right supports and services into place so you can live the life you want. We take an individual approach in everything we do, because we know each person we support is unique. What does this look like in practice? It means we’re completely flexible, and you’re in control when it comes to choosing the services you want, when you want them and the people who support you.
Enjoying your community
If you want to get out and about more, do more of what you enjoy or try something new, we can support you.
What would you like to do?
- Build or maintain your current friendships or relationships
- Become more active in a group
- Learn a new skill
- Grow your knowledge and confidence getting around or using public transport
- Go on holiday
- Join a new group or pursue a new interest
- Something else? We’ll work with you to achieve your goals in the community
A break for you, and your carer (flexible respite)
Getting out and about with someone different can be a nice change. If you want to get out of the house, access the community or find an activity, community participation is a great option for you. For carers, it provides a break from everyday life, allowing you to catch up on your other responsibilities and recharge. You might know this as flexible respite.
In some areas in Queensland, we offer these supports via BlueCare, one of Queensland’s largest and most trusted support providers.
