What Rise & Shine Is Really About?

People often think goal-setting has to feel big or overwhelming.

It doesn’t.

Rise & Shine is about:

🌟Talking things through

🌟Understanding what matters to you

🌟Taking small steps forward

🌟Feeling more confident over time

It happens during everyday life — not in offices, not in formal meetings.

If you want support that feels calm, practical and focused on you, Rise & Shine might be a good fit.

At United Abilities, understanding a person’s triggers is incredibly important. These may relate to mental health, sensory sensitivities, or medical conditions, and recognising them early can make a huge difference to how a situation unfolds.

One of our support workers has built a wonderful relationship with the person they support. Through that trust and communication, they are often able to recognise together when a medical episode may be coming on.

Because the support worker understands the signs and responds with calmness and professionalism, the person knows they are safe and well looked after during what can be a very difficult moment.

It’s a great reminder that good support is not just about being present — it’s about knowing the person, recognising the signs, and responding with care and confidence.

At United Abilities, we’re very mindful that introducing a new support worker isn’t a small thing.

For many people we support, trust takes time. A new face can feel unsettling, especially when routines matter and familiar supports aren’t available. That’s something we respect, not rush.

Recently, one of the people we support agreed to try a shift with a new support worker while their regular worker was on leave. It took patience, reassurance, and the right match. And it paid off.

The shift went beautifully. So much so that the person we support contacted our A*O team afterwards to share how positive the experience was and to say they’re now comfortable extending their support team.

A small step on paper. A big outcome in real life.

Moments like this remind us why taking the time to get the right person matters 🤍

We’re really excited to share that Kyri has stepped into a new role at United Abilities as our Client Coordinator 💙

Kyri has been with us for nearly five years and moved into the Support Leader role back in February 2023. During that time, he’s built strong relationships with clients and families and has supported people to work towards goals that really matter to them (Refer video below) .

Kyri knows United Abilities inside and out, and he brings a calm, practical, and thoughtful approach to everything he does.

In his new role, Kyri will be:
• Managing referrals
• Supporting onboarding
• Working alongside our Support Leaders
• Overseeing compliance
• Helping match the right support workers with the right clients

Kyri will be reaching out over the next few months to introduce himself, and I’m confident he’ll be a familiar and trusted point of contact for many of you.

A big congratulations to Kyri on this next chapter 👏

🎨 New Art Group – Expression of Interest 🎨

We’re exploring the launch of a weekly Art Group on Monday afternoons, commencing February 2026, at the United Abilities Hub.

This group is about more than just art.

It’s about creativity, self-expression, connection, and having a calm, welcoming space to slow down and create.

🖌️ What we’re envisioning:
• A relaxed, supportive art group
• Guided and free-form creative activities
• A focus on enjoyment, expression, and confidence
• Small group environment

🎨 Art supplies:
There will be a small out-of-pocket cost to cover shared art materials. Or you can bring your own.

At this stage, we’re inviting Expressions of Interest to help shape the group.

Your feedback will guide the final structure, activities, and support needs.

👉 If this sounds like something you, or someone you support, would enjoy, we’d love to hear from you.

Call us on: 1300 614 996
Or send through a referral: https://lnkd.in/gidKAJsA

Let’s create something meaningful together.
