23.01.2022 James has been participating in work experience with his local Woolworths store for almost two years. When he isn’t at work, James enjoys the company of his friends at Afford’s Belmore Day Program every Friday. James is a great worker. He listens to instructions and gives 100% to complete his jobs, said Marc Menke, Afford’s Belmore Day Program Team Leader. Afford supported James to secure the work experience role at Woolworths. He was guided to apply for the position and pr...epare for workplace situations. At 24 years of age, James is keen to learn about work-life so that he can land a job to earn his own money. During work experience in the Woolworths bakery, James carefully places evenly sized mounds of cookie dough on trays. He has learned how to use the ovens and how to adjust the temperature to bake the cookies. When the oven timer rings, James takes out the freshly baked cookies and takes in the mouth-watering cookie smell. To finish, he packs the cookies into containers, ready for purchase by customers. With support from lifestyle assistants at Belmore Day Program, James has been able to keep to his work experience schedule and develop his skills. #GoodNewsStory #AffordEmployment #NDISProvider #WeCare

20.01.2022 Afford Gregory Hills Day Program Now Open! You could see the excitement of being in the new site on the faces of clients transitioning from Oran Park Day Program into their new space at Gregory Hills as soon as they walked through the door. The bright, neon Afford styled logo catches your eye as soon as you enter through the front doors. It sets the scene for an array of things to do and see across the site.... An important addition for the Gregory Hills site is ample locker space for individuals to develop their independent living skills. A fully equipped kitchen is ideal for budding MasterChefs who love to try new recipes and learn new culinary skills. The sensory room has been specially designed by an Afford Occupational Therapist to ensure that sensory supports cater to the needs of clients of all abilities. The large spaces of the site mean that staff can include a checkerboard dance floor for everyone to showcase their groovy moves. The dining and lounge areas provide masses of space for safe social gatherings. Our new Gregory Hills Day Program extends supports to locals in and around the Macarthur region to ensure every individual has choice and opportunity to get involved in things they love.

16.01.2022 Club Afford is a membership-based social group that encourages individuals to explore the community. Club Afford is all about making friends, having fun and nurturing a positive mindset and wellbeing. It’s about getting involved in activities that you have always wanted to try and having the support to help you get there. As community access restrictions continue to ease, Affordians are again beginning to go out for day trips and visiting local attractions with Club Afford.... Clients and staff who are part of the Oran Park Day Program Club Afford enjoyed the fresh sea air and the magical, natural wonder on a recent visit to the Kiama Blowhole. It’s when the seas run into the shore that the Blowhole really puts on a show! For many clients, the day trip to Kiama was a time to relax and unwind by the seaside, watching the calmness of the ocean. After the excitement of the blowhole everyone enjoyed lunch on the grass at a nearby picnic area. Fish and chips was the most popular order of the day. Club Afford participants have enjoyed a variety of outings to the movies, Madame Tussauds, food festivals, open days, festivals and on-site discos, Christmas and Easter events and so many more. #ClubAfford #SocialGroups #NDISProvider #Afford

14.01.2022 The job of a taste tester at the Darrell Lea Factory Outlet could be one of the most sought-after roles in Australia. It certainly was of interest to our Ingleburn SLES (School Leaver Employment Support) program trainees who visited the Darrell Lea factory outlet this month for a sweet insight into the confectionery industry. Industry visits give trainees the opportunity to see workplaces in action. They can experience the fast-paced nature of a variety of businesses and can ...see firsthand the responsibilities and skills needed for a variety of roles. At the Darrell Lea store, trainees participated in a tour led by the retail store manager, Sharon. Sharon talked about the roles and duties of the different sections of the company. Trainees learned about everything from how employees prepare ingredients and operate machinery, through to delivering top customer service. Everyone was excited to get a behind-the-scenes glimpse into how all the delicious chocolate is prepared, moulded and set to be ready for purchase. SLES is a two-year program that gives young school leavers the chance to explore their work interests and gain practical experience about work life. #AffordSLES #SLES #NDISProvider #LifeAfterSchool

04.01.2022 Afford day programs support individuals to access their local community and develop social connections and friendships. A recent trip to Shearwater Park provided all this and more for Afford clients, Josh, Naomi, Emma and Natasha. The beautiful day called for lots of walks along the sand and water’s edge. Picnic baskets filled with healthy snacks and lunch were opened out onto picnic rugs for a lovely meal under the shade of the large trees around the grounds. It was a great... day out that really helped our clients strengthen their friendships, said Justine, Team Leader at Southport Day Program. Our clients enjoy going out as a group and doing activities together. They develop their social skills and really get to know each other on a deeper level. The activity that proved most popular, was fishing! After having no luck in catching a fish at Runaway Bay, Josh, Naomi and Emma decided they wanted to find out just what gets the perfect catch. Customer Care Manager, Tamara, connected Southport Day Program staff with the local fishing club. Four of the club’s volunteers took Southport clients and staff out to a good fishing spot, to learn more about the art of fishing. After catching rocks, trees, seaweed and leaves, the team finally cast their fishing lines into the water and caught three fish!! The fish were small in size, so they were freed back into the water. Not before everyone had a good close look at these magnificent aquatic creatures, of course. #NDISProvider #Communityaccess #Socialgroups #Disabilitysupport #Dayprogram #Afford #Goldcoastdisabilitysupport #fishing #fun #friendship

02.01.2022 Charlotte is a bold and active resident of Afford’s Cranbourne Supported Accommodation in Melbourne, but it hasn’t always been that way. When she first moved into her new home, Charlotte was shy and rarely felt comfortable speaking to others in group situations. Her room was her ‘hideout’ and her comfort zone. Today, Charlotte confidently does things around the house and makes choices about the things she wants to do. She enthusiastically participates in the weekly resident m...eetings at her home with her housemates. She is now at ease and relaxed to chat and laugh with staff and residents. The most significant milestone for Charlotte is her participation in walks with staff and her housemates. When she first joined Afford, Charlotte would retreat to her room to go on her iPad or listen to music. Now, she is keen to get outdoors and explore her local community and get some exercise at the same time. Her independent living skills have flourished, and she makes delicious pizzas that she loves sharing with everyone at her home. Over the past few months, Charlotte has bloomed into a confident and capable young woman with so many wonderful opportunities ahead. With support if and when she needs it, Charlotte now has the confidence to live life her way. Go Charlotte!

01.01.2022 Heroes with Ability is back! Kick, pass the ball, run, and score a try! It is this energy and activity that many Affordians have missed while the Heroes with Ability football program has been on hold due to the Coronavirus. Now, with safety procedures in place, individuals from Afford’s Day Programs across Sydney are eager and ready to return to the footy field for tackle and kicking practice, camaraderie and fun. Heroes with Ability is a program that encourages people with a...ny disability to play a modified competition of touch football. The program supports individuals to learn new skills and have a go as part of a team. Ten weeks of training work towards a Gala Day where the friendly competition ends with a final match between two teams to battle it out for the Afford Shield. Afford partnered with Heroes with Ability last year to provide more opportunities for Day Program participants to socialise with others and enjoy exercise as part of a healthy lifestyle. You could tell that everyone was so excited to be back playing football. It’s a great program that makes sure that every individual, no matter what their disability, has the chance to get involved and contribute to their team’s efforts, said Kathy Bullock, Afford District Manager, South West. #AffordDayProgram #DayProgram #Fitness #Social #Friends #NDISProvider #HeroesWithAbility #WeCare
