Happy Mother’s Day 💐

Today we celebrate the incredible mums, carers, and mother figures who give so much of themselves every single day. Your strength, patience, love, and dedication do not go unnoticed.

At Mix It Up – Live life your way, we are especially grateful for the mums in our community — including those supporting loved ones with disabilities, often going above and beyond in ways that inspire us all.

We hope today brings you a moment to feel appreciated, supported, and celebrated. You deserve it 💖

Footloose and free to choose! 🎭✨

One of our amazing participants recently attended Footloose the Musical with the support of their Lifestyle Companion —and what an experience it was! From the music to the energy on stage, it was a night full of fun, laughter, and unforgettable moments.

At the heart of what we do is supporting choice and control—making it possible for participants to explore their interests, connect with their community, and enjoy experiences that matter to them.

We’re so proud to be part of journeys that celebrate independence, confidence, and living life your way 💙

We know many of you have seen today’s announcement from NDIS Minister Mark Butler about upcoming changes to the NDIS.

There’s a lot of information being shared, and it’s completely understandable if you’re feeling unsure about what it means for you.

Here’s what’s important to know right now:
· There are no immediate changes to your current supports today
· Some changes (like plan reassessments and planning processes) may begin soon, while others will be introduced gradually over the next few years
· Areas that may change over time include social/community participation funding, eligibility processes, and how some supports are delivered

👉 What we’re doing:
Our team is carefully reviewing all announced reforms and staying up to date as more details are released. We are committed to:
· Supporting you to understand any changes to your plan
· Advocating for your needs and goals
· Adjusting our services to make sure you continue to receive high-quality, person-centred support

👉 What you can do:
Right now, there’s nothing you need to do. If any changes affect you directly, we will work through them with you.

If you have questions or concerns, please reach out to our team—we’re here to help.

We’ll continue to share clear updates as more information becomes available.

Today, we pause to remember and honour the courage, sacrifice, and service of all who have served our country.

On ANZAC Day, we reflect on the spirit of mateship, resilience, and community — values that guide us in supporting one another every day.

Lest we forget. 🌺
