For people with impairments, Birch Care’s Community Participation Service promotes social participation and personal development. To encourage community involvement, skill development, and deep connections, we provide specially designed programmes.
Access to the community can become tough with physical and mental impairment. We make sure that the participant becomes a recognised and respected member of society with regular interactions and engagements. Our social and community activities are meant to improve communication and participation to bring out the hidden qualities and emotions of the individuals receiving the care.
Involvement plays a significant role in the overall development of an individual, and it has been found to have worked wonders for people with disabilities. We organise and arrange group activities that range from educational workshops to picnics and attending live events. From taking the participants to a game of football to letting them enjoy a day trip, we do it all.
Every individual deserves the opportunity to contribute their unique talents and perspectives to society. Community participation not only enriches the lives of our participants but also helps break down stigmas and misconceptions about disabilities. By encouraging our participants to take part in social, recreational, and vocational activities, we promote self-confidence, social skills, and personal growth. It’s about empowerment, advocacy, and inclusion, ensuring that our participants have a voice and presence in the broader community. At Birch Care, we are committed to facilitating and celebrating the active participation of our participants because we recognize that it’s a fundamental aspect of their journey towards independence, happiness, and fulfilment.

Our mission is to empower individuals with disabilities to actively engage in their communities, develop valuable skills, and establish meaningful connections that enhance their quality of life.
Our Commitment:
Most families come up with the same questions about our services and organisation. Thus, we have listed down the answers for the topmost queries that come our way frequently.
NDIS stands for National Disability Insurance Scheme offered by the Australian Government. It offers funding to individuals with disabilities to provide for the expenses related to disability. It allows individuals with disabilities to get funded for reasonable needs that help in capacity building. It is independent of the Disability Support Pension and universal healthcare. The NDIS offers three types of support funding including Core Supports, Capital Supports and Capacity-Building. The core supports include disability transport, social support, etc. The capital supports are offered for high-cost assistive technology or refurbishment of house or vehicle. The capacity-building support is provided for assisting with the development of life skills.
We have vast experience in working with people with disabilities of all age groups. All our professionals are intensively trained in meeting the needs of people with a variety of disabilities. We have worked with both children and adults in the age group of 7 to 65 years with physical, mental, or speech impairment. We provide assistance with mobility, social and community participation, companionship, domestic tasks, overnight support, post-operative care, school holiday programs, and more. You can trust us because we make sure that the participant stays safe and comfortable throughout the activities and caregiving methods. Contact us today to discuss your needs in detail.
Our disability support workers are recruited after careful assessments and undergo the required training to deal with people with disabilities with patience and care. They work diligently throughout the day and provide support every step of the way to fulfil the desires of the participant. Our aim is to brighten up their lives with unparalleled assistance that makes them confident and keeps them motivated to do better. Our group activities help them to get involved with other people and build friendships and strong bonds that help in meeting social needs. We improve the learning curve with educational and skill-building activities that also aid in decision-making and problem-solving.
Children with disabilities need special care and attention as they are emotionally vulnerable and dealing with their uniqueness. However, every child is different, and our support workers approach them with a flexible and open mindset so that they can communicate freely. We aim to bring them out of their shell and enjoy life like other children through a variety of activities and tasks. From assisting in daily living tasks to building life skills, we work with them as friends and supporters. They can lean on us in times of need and get all the desired help without any inhibitions. We aim to develop their personalities in a holistic manner.
Experience the transformative power of community engagement and personal development through our NDIS Community Participation Service. Together, let’s create a community that thrives on diversity and inclusion. Contact Birch Care to embark on your journey of growth and connection!
