🌿 Weekend Adventures at Morialta! 🌞

Mary and her friend Lauren Anne joined STLDS’ very own Lauren Ann for a beautiful day out at Morialta Conservation Park over the weekend. The trio walked to First Falls, which was flowing beautifully after the recent rains. Along the way, they even spotted a koala 🐨 happily munching on gum leaves!

After working up an appetite, they enjoyed a relaxing picnic lunch surrounded by nature. The afternoon continued with a visit to Newman’s Nursery, where they admired the gorgeous plants, especially a stunning pink rhododendron 🌸in full bloom.

It was the perfect spring day; great company, beautiful weather and plenty of smiles all around.

NDIS Update: Understanding Respite (Short-Term Accommodation)

The NDIS has recently updated its Pricing Arrangements and Price Limits for 2025–26 — including changes to how respite, also called Short-Term Accommodation (STA), is priced.

Respite or STA isn’t automatically included in every NDIS plan. To access it, you need either:
- Specific funding for Short-Term Accommodation (STA) in your plan, or
- Flexible Core Supports funding that can be used for respite if it meets your goals and NDIS guidelines.

Respite has many benefits. Taking a short break can help you recharge, try new activities, meet new people and build independence — while giving your family or carers time to rest and reset.

Need help checking your plan?
If you’d like to understand whether you have STA or flexible Core Supports funding available, our team can walk you through it and help you plan your next break with confidence.

We’re here to help you make the most of your NDIS plan — and support you to live life your way.

What does “reasonable and necessary” mean in the NDIS?

When the NDIS funds supports, they must be reasonable and necessary — that means they:
✅ Relate to your disability
✅ Are useful and cost-effective
✅ Help you work toward your goals

Understanding this helps you make the most of your plan and know what kinds of supports the NDIS can fund.

If you’re ever unsure about what’s considered “reasonable and necessary,” our team can help explain it and guide you through your options.

A visit to the theatre!

Our client Carmel had a fantastic time seeing Cats The Musical. It was a big day out — the theatre was packed and bustling with people — but Carmel’s support worker was right by her side, helping her navigate the crowds so she could relax and enjoy the show. 🐱🎶

Carmel loves getting out and doing things, and this was such a special experience. We love seeing our clients enjoying life in the community!

👩‍🦯 Happy White Cane Day! 👨‍🦯

Every year on October 15, we celebrate White Cane Day – a day that highlights the vital role of the white cane in supporting safe travel and independence for people who are blind or vision impaired.

The white cane is more than a tool – it’s a key to moving confidently, finding your way and taking control in everyday life.

At Sky’s the Limit Disability Services, we’re proud to support participants who use white canes, guide dogs and other mobility tools. We recognise their skills, determination and the importance of accessible communities.

Next time you see someone using a white cane:
✅ Stop, look and give them space to pass safely
✅ Offer assistance only if needed – but always ask first
✅ Remember that independent mobility is something to be respected and celebrated

Let’s spread awareness and make our spaces safer and more welcoming for everyone.

We loved exploring new assistive tech at last week's See Differently with the Royal Society for the Blind Tech Fest!
Among the screen readers, magnifiers and smart kitchen tools, one invention really caught our attention — Ashirase, a navigation aid worn in your shoes that helps people with low vision navigate directions when walking.
You can learn more about Ashirase here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZE7p6ZYQ0c8&t=101s
Would you give them a try? What’s the best accessibility innovation you’ve seen lately?

🌟 Choice and Control with STLDS 🌟

At Sky’s the Limit Disability Services, we stand behind the NDIS goal of giving you choice and control.

We provide services that meet your needs and offer information and advice so you can make the decisions that matter most to you. With us:
✅ You choose what supports you need
✅ You decide how, when and by whom you are supported
✅ You can select from our wonderful team of support workers so you feel comfortable

We help you navigate the NDIS and tailor supports to your individual needs, preferences and goals. Whether it’s learning a new skill, finding a job or joining community activities, supports designed around your goals are more meaningful and effective.

Having choice and control means you get to set your priorities and make decisions about what matters to you. It also motivates us to provide high-quality, creative and responsive services—because one size doesn’t fit all!

Even if you need help making decisions, the NDIS supports supported decision-making, ensuring your voice is heard and your preferences are respected.

💙 You’re at the centre of your support. Your goals. Your choices. Your life.
