Today is International Day of People with Disability (IDPwD).

As Occupational Therapists, we're passionate about advocating for and supporting the rights of disabled people. At The Social Confidence Collective we strive each day to provide inclusive and diverse spaces for young people to engage in activities where they can feel safe and connected.

Throughout this week we'll be sharing content from the disabled community, including local events, helpful resources and ways you can help to make your community for inclusive for disabled people.

The byline reads, Be part of creating an inclusive and diverse community in black text. Followed by an image of a calendar and 3 December. Below there is the IDPwD logo with the person in dark blue, and an orange and yellow image on either side.

Perhaps it’s our algorithm, but it feels like there’s a lot of programs out there advertising “social skills training” as a “fix” to social disconnection 😩 Here at The Social Confidence Collective, we do things differently. Hit the link in our bio to read more on our blog.

We're excited to welcome our ACU occupational therapy project students this week. And if you hadn't already gathered by the picture, they're helping us set up a Dungeons and Dragons group!

This will involve searching through current evidence, and meeting with young people who would like to co-design the group.

We look forward to sharing more of the process with you. And if you have any tips or tricks about D&D please drop them in the comments (us older facilitators need some pointers!)

We've been enjoying the Nintendo switch in our groups in the last couple of weeks. Can you believe that we used a lug a TV back and forth to and from this room for A YEAR before we realised we could just plug into the projector?! Oops... 🫣 🫠

We've been playing Mario Kart and Boomerang Fu together. Do you know them?

We're on the hunt for more games that everyone can jump into - bonus points if you don't need prior experience to play! What are your go-to group-friendly switch games? Drop your suggestions below ⬇️
