25.01.2022 This really touched me

We have expanded strongly in the Melton / Western Melbourne area, and now require an additional experienced Support Coordinator to join our exceptional team; live our values and further enhance our reputation in the region.

21.01.2022 Hi all, please share the news: We are recruiting for an NDIS Support Coordinator and a Specialist Support Coordinator!!

20.01.2022 Great article by Tricia Malowney:"I really hope that if this pandemic has highlighted anything, it’s that striving for normal, no matter the costs, is not only exclusionary but stifles ways of doing things better."

19.01.2022 Incredibly proud tonight!!! Lifeful have just been announced winners of the Inclusive Brimbank Award for: "Demonstrated outstanding contribution to promoting participation in community life and supporting proud, safe and healthy citizens."...

Congratulations team!

18.01.2022 Hi all In this unbelievable period we need to able to look out for each other, especially those who are vulnerable and at risk. But all sensible guidance is warning us to maintain a safe physical distance to minimise transmission. The attached document outlines how one person went about ensuring that he and his neighbours were able to support each other without compromising safety.... I am hopeful this may provide some inspiration to the many who would like to make sure others are safe and cared for but perhaps are not sure where to start. Be kind to each other and stay safe.

17.01.2022 Here are some more thoughts and tips about remembering to communicate in different ways for different people, and with respect!

17.01.2022 A very sad loss this week; Sue Salthouse was a disability advocate who worked with enthusiasm and energy. She was awarded and respected for her work and she sounds like a complete legend. https://www.abc.net.au//canberra-sue-salthouse-di/12475816

16.01.2022 Some great new developments in the pipeline for NDIS. It seems they are being forced to begrudgingly pay attention

16.01.2022 Travel expenses under NDIS can be confusing; are your providers charging you fairly for travel costs?

16.01.2022 Great new for all of our clients.

15.01.2022 Are you looking after yourself on International Self Care Day? It's today! Lifeful is focused on an invisible disability today; mental health. This blog post links to some great suggestions for steps we can take to care for our own mental health, as well as resources for when extra help is needed.

15.01.2022 I’m heading straight to the reading nook! Did you know that Growing Up Disabled in Australia was released just two days ago? Image descriptions: Image 1: Heading says BOOK CLUB: DISABILITY-FOCUSED STORIES. Lifeful logo, a cartoon of a stack of books and a cartoon of two people sitting and reading. ... Image 2: Title says Growing Up Disabled in Australia, edited by Carly Findlay OAM, Subtitle: If you are part of the disability community, you will find comfort, relatability and solidarity in these pages- featuring essays, poems and comics from Australians with disability. For abled audiences, there is a chance this book might challenge your world view and allow you to recognize the strength and expertise of people with lived experience of disability. There is a picture of the cover of the book which is colourful with lots of line details. Image 3: Title: Future Girl by Asphyxia. A coming-of-age novel about Piper, a Deaf girl learning about her identity alongside Marley- a child of Deaf adults (known as a CODA). This book is part of the #OwnVoices movement that sees disabled people telling their own stories. #NDISProvider #OwnVoices #Access #Accessibility #GrowingUpDisabledInAustralia

14.01.2022 Awesome. But one has to wonder. Would this have been accepted as ‘Goal’ in his NDIS Plan?

14.01.2022 Masked Melburnians, please be considerate of people with hearing impairments... Important tips when communicating with a mask: - Do not yell, but talk a little louder - Articulate your words rather than mumble - Slow down, don’t talk too fast - Use your hands and your body language... - Move to a quiet place if you can, and - Use alternative communication methods, such as text if required.

12.01.2022 In a very straightforward way this says everything about what we believe at Lifeful. People don’t need to be disadvantaged. They don’t need special treatment. The world should simply embrace people with disability as part of our diversity and adapt.

11.01.2022 Written by Dr Sophie Brock - The Good Enough Mother @drsophiebrock This is to do with the murder of a woman and her 3 children in QLD, Aus today. The story is v...ery distressing. I have posted a photo of Hannah Baxter and her gorgeous babies, because I am not linking to any of the absolutely appalling headlines of news articles I've seen reporting the story. I am not interested in his name. I do not care what he did for work. Don't tell me what his friends thought of him. And don't you dare try and tell us he was a loving Dad. Loving Dads don't set their children on fire. Good men don't murder women and children. Framing him as the victim within a marriage breakdown, driven to despair? Don't even TRY. It is an insult. It devalues these children's lives. It betrays the worth of this woman. It makes a mockery of fatherhood. And it puts more women and children at risk. Framing this act of male violence as an individualised tragedy without placing it in the broader context of the epidemic and predictable PATTERN of this violence, is an injustice, and it is dangerous. At least 1 woman a week is killed in the context of domestic violence in Australia. Who is reading this status right now who could be murdered next week? And the week after that? And that? These tragedies are often the result of ongoing patterns of behaviour, with concurrent forms of victimisation used - physical, sexual, psychological, emotional, financial, and technology-facilitated. Separation can be perceived as a loss of control, where violence by abusers can not only persist, but can escalate. Our systems are failing women and children. A culture that asks the wrong questions and who frame the perpetrator as a senseless monster misses the point. It turns my stomach too, but the face of domestic violence IS that of an 'ordinary' looking family. We can't change what we don't acknowledge. There are no words that can convey the heartache of the loss of this woman and her children, or of the 7 other women killed so far this year. This has to stop.
