🌟 Friendly Reminder for Parents & Guardians during Therapy.

At Pilbara Therapy Services, your child’s safety, wellbeing, and therapy outcomes are our top priority 💙
To help us provide a safe and effective environment for everyone, we kindly ask parents and guardians to note the following:

✅ Parental Presence for children under the age of 16 at Pilbara Therapy Services for therapy sessions.

Please arrive 5 minutes before your child’s appointment.

A parent or guardian must remain onsite for the full duration of the session.

You’re welcome to relax in our designated waiting area while your child is in therapy.

👶 Sibling Supervision

We understand siblings may need to attend appointments at times.

Parents/guardians are responsible for actively supervising all children in their care.

Siblings must stay with you in the waiting area and not access therapy rooms or equipment, unless approved by your therapist.

⚠️ Important to Note

If these guidelines aren’t followed, sessions may need to be rescheduled to ensure everyone’s safety.

If you have any questions or concerns, our Senior Management Team is always happy to help.
Thank you for working with us to create a safe, supportive space for our entire community 🌿

🌟 Lived Experience at the Heart of IDPWD 🌟

This year’s International Day of People with Disability event is something truly special — because every presenter, storyteller and performer brings real lived experience to the stage.

Representation matters.
Voice matters.
Community wisdom matters.

And when we centre lived experience, we create space for stories that educate, empower, challenge assumptions, and remind us what true inclusion looks and feels like.

We are so excited to welcome a diverse lineup of presenters and performers who embody resilience, leadership, advocacy, creativity and community connection. Their stories reflect the richness of disability culture — from sport, policy, and adventure, to sibling perspectives, peer connection, and youth talent.

✨ this is what celebrating IDPWD is all about. ✨

Join us as we learn from, honour, and celebrate the people whose experiences lead the way forward.
We can’t wait to share this day with you. 💙💛

⸻
December 3rd, 9am-2pm
Red Eart Arts Precinct, Karratha
FREE Community Event
All welcome!

Image Description:
