Overview
A Day in the Valley is an NDIS program that offers young people the opportunity to engage in nature-based activities in the Huon Valley, promoting social interaction, skill development, and wellbeing. Participants receive individualised support from a dedicated 1:1 support worker, ensuring personalised care within a group setting. Every Thursday the group will head out on a different outdoor adventure in the Valley.
Why
We believe every young person deserves opportunities to explore, grow, and thrive. This program was inspired by a family who shared their hope for their child to experience the things they love—hiking, kayaking and adventuring, whilst connecting with similar peers in a supportive and inclusive way. They expressed how difficult it was to find programs that not only understood their child's unique needs but also celebrated their strengths.
