Big changes are coming to the NDIS.

Funding will tighten. Expectations will rise.

And truthfully, that’s where it should have been all along.

Support should never have been about filling time.

It should be about:
✔️ Building capacity not dependence
✔️ Creating real opportunities, not token gestures
✔️ Challenging people to grow, not taking easy path

The standard is lifting.

We are excited , we’re ready for it

No shortcuts. Just real outcome 💪🏻❤️

In-Tune Support Services is exploring social and connection activities for people with disability in the Southwest, including speed dating events and learning workshops. We know many people are interested in making friends, dating, and feeling more connected, and we want to shape these activities with the community.

This short survey helps us understand:
-Who is interested
-What people would like
-What support may be needed

Speed dating
A relaxed, structured social event where you meet people one-on-one for a few minutes at a time. It is safe, supported, and no-pressure. You can let the organiser know if you’d like to connect with someone afterwards.

Workshops
We are also considering short workshops focused on building friendships and relationships. These may cover communication, confidence, relationships, consent, and rights, and would likely run over a few weeks.
Important to know
This is not a booking, events are not confirmed yet. What happens next depends on interest and feedback.

Your input will help us design something that works for you and the wider community.
Thank you for helping! 😊
