Michael’s Support offers practical, flexible support services across everyday living, independence and getting out into the community. Some people need a hand with the day-to-day stuff. Others want to build confidence, learn new skills or find more things to get involved in. Often, it’s a mix of all three.
The idea is to make support useful, comfortable and relevant to the life you actually want to be living.
We’re always looking for interesting things participants might enjoy, from sporting events and concerts to creative programs, beach days and camping.
There are always things that need doing at home, and sometimes having the right help makes the whole week run a bit easier.
Our support services can include assistance with personal routines, household tasks and day-to-day living, as well as Supported Independent Living for people who need more regular support at home.
The level of help will depend on what you need. For some people that means hands-on assistance, while for others it might mean having someone there to guide, prompt or work alongside them.
Learning to do more for yourself can open up a lot of possibilities.
We can work with you on everyday skills such as preparing meals, shopping, managing money, using public transport, getting organised and becoming more confident getting around.
The focus is on practical skills that have a real place in your life and can help you feel more capable doing things your own way.
Sometimes the goal is simply to get out more and have more happening in the week. Our community-based support services can help you take part in activities, meet people, explore new interests and get more comfortable being out and about.
That could mean joining a group activity, heading to an event, trying a new hobby or getting involved in something happening locally. You could choose bowling, aqua golf, pool, snooker, swimming or a whole other variety of fun activities.
If there’s something you’ve been wanting to try, tell us. We’re always open to new ideas.
Whether you already know what kind of support you’re looking for or you’re still figuring that out, get in touch for a chat.
