24.01.2022 People at day programs test out the new HiAce Commuter.

23.01.2022 Rainbows mean different things to different people. To some people the rainbow represents a bridge of hope and a pathway to new beginnings. It is a sign to take a leap of faith. Annette took this photo this morning. What do you think the rainbow over IAS represents?

23.01.2022 What changes would you like to see at the Inverell Pool? Now is the time to have your say.

23.01.2022 High finances at IAS House Gloucester today

21.01.2022 Chris was supported to up-cycle an old bee box to make a storage box for his unit. He is thinking of putting some padding on the top so the box can double as a footstool.

20.01.2022 Carol is an excellent cook. Here she shows Deb how she uses her Thermomix to make peach and pear sorbet. Looks delicious!

20.01.2022 Linda and Richard enjoy afternoon tea together.

20.01.2022 Chris was busy in the IAS Workshed last weekend - planning, measuring, sawing and drilling. Good job, Chris!

20.01.2022 Brandon had a great day out. He helped collect the eggs at the BEST Community Gardens, patted a hen, said "Hello" to a horse, checked out some young birds and enjoyed a cuppa in the sun.

19.01.2022 Col loves spending time in country. Last Friday he joined a group from Armajun Inverell to discuss culture and basic wildfire awareness.

19.01.2022 Thinking of Pam Clarke who died in Bingara Hospital on Thursday, and who, along with her son Paul were part of the IAS family. Condolences to Craig and other family for your loss.

18.01.2022 Over the last few months, Colin was supported to make his own didgeridoo. He used a wood plane to smooth the surface before sanding and painting. Well done, Colin!

16.01.2022 Everyone went outside the box last night as Richard cooked Fajito’s. It was a chatty, interactive and progressive dinner. Yum!

14.01.2022 Yikes!!! Are they trying to scare us? Has Halloween come early to Gloucester? No, it's Jeanette and Jo making themselves even more beautiful with skin treatments masks :)

13.01.2022 Darren checks out the KUBODA at the BEST Community Gardens in Inverell.

10.01.2022 The immensley talented Dylan demostrates his skills on the digeridoo for Uncle Col. The sound of this instrument is truly amazing and transports the listener to another place and time.

09.01.2022 Phillip is back on a horse and is all smiles. He said: "Now I have something to look forward to each week!"

09.01.2022 Maintaining cultural connections is very important for identity and well being. In recent weeks, IAS has had the pleasure of listening to Dylan as he plays the digeridoo for Uncle Col. Even Glenn had a go! . Over the next few days we shall be sharing some video footage, so keep an eye out.

08.01.2022 Each digeridoo has it's own unique sound. Listen for the kookaburra.

07.01.2022 People had a great afternoon at the Inverell Races on Saturday. Everyone dressed in their finery and embraced the spirit of the day with lots of tips, betting and urging their horse to the finish line. Sharon & Gary picked the winner in Race 5. Winners are Grinners, they say. A memorable day enjoyed by all.

05.01.2022 What did you get up to over the weekend? Linda chose to do some baking.

04.01.2022 Michael celebrates his birthday with mum and his house mates. What an awesome cake! Hoping you had a wonderful day. Best wishes from IAS.

02.01.2022 IAS would like to acknowledge Lorae Schwark who has worked for IAS since 2012, initially in the role of Finance, and now as Plan Manager. We recognise in Lorae her capacity to find humour and the bright side of almost any situation while maintaining a high standard of professionalism. Lorae’s team appreciates her infectious smile and the wild stories of life in the country, shared over break times. As Lorae says: I have found working for IAS to be one of the best jobs I have ever had. It is exceptionally rewarding to see how we have evolved over time from ‘Dam Days’ to now. I think it is important to love your job and the people you work with. I am grateful that I do.
