Social Support
Interchange Illawarra provides Social Support to people with disabilities, giving a choice of different activities to attend on weekdays, evenings and weekends.
We match the right people together to assist people in making and maintaining friendships. We have centres in both Wollongong and Lake Illawarra, to service the north and south of our local area, which act as a meeting point for our social groups.
At Interchange Illawarra, we foster a culture of everyday people doing everyday things with their peers in a fun and supported environment. We offer Youth Supported Activities for 12 to 17 year olds and Adult Social Supported Activities.
Core Funding
Did you know that you may be able to use some of your NDIS core support budget to attend Social Support group activities?
Social activities can assist with your health and wellbeing, improve your social skills and help you meet new friends. They are key to the NDIS achieving its objective to support people with a disability to achieve independence which includes social and economic participation in the community.
Call us on 02 4227 1079 or email socialsupport@interchangeillawarra.org to enquire if our Social Support groups are right for you.
