Sky's the Limit Disability Services

Sky's the Limit is a client-focused organisation that supports people living with a disability.

Sky’s the Limit Disability Services has been established in response to local community demand for quality disability support services. It is focused on managing unique, individually tailored supports to improve the health and wellbeing of South Australians living with a disability. Tim, our General Manager, has around 30 years’ experience in, and extensive knowledge of, the disability and communi

ty sectors, working across various disability sporting and recreation groups. He has also worked extensively in the employment of people living with a disability and is focused on the issues which most affect daily life. Working in the disability sector has enabled Tim to develop a deep understanding of the NDIS. This includes helping people to describe their goals, understand the supports available to them, and learn how to develop an NDIS plan that meets their needs. Tim's life experience means he has particular expertise in assistive technology, mobility, life skills, blind and low vision sport and recreation, and coming to terms with vision loss. Tim understands the key issues in the Australian disability sector that, when addressed, can remove barriers to people living with a disability achieving their goals. We offer the following services:

We love seeing projects that put accessibility and inclusion front and centre.

A team of students at are currently working on an exciting project called Vision for Motion which is a wellness app designed to support people who are blind or have low vision to engage in fitness and connect with others - two things that are very important to us at STLDS.

Griffith is known for being very forward-thinking when it comes to disability inclusion, with initiatives like Inclusive Futures helping to drive more accessible and equitable design across their programs, so it’s great to see that thinking come to life in projects like this.

They’re looking to hear directly from the community to help shape the app, including:
• Whether you’d be interested in using something like this
• What features would be most useful
• Your thoughts on accessibility, engagement, and even willingness to pay

The survey is completely voluntary and anonymous and no personal details are collected.

If you’d like to share your thoughts and help guide this project, you can complete the survey here:
https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/TLT9GFM

Projects like this are so important in making fitness more inclusive and accessible for everyone.

If you have any questions, you can also contact Taylah Cahill at: taylah.cahill@griffithuni.edu.au

Have you ever wondered how someone who is blind or has low vision plays Australian Rules Football?

That sound you can hear is coming from inside the ball. By adding a bell or something that makes noise, players can track it using sound instead of sight.

When playing Aussie rules, players call to each other, guide one another and adapt the game so everyone can participate safely and confidently 🏉

Would you give it a go? There's a BLV SANFL league with sessions on April 17th and May 16th, 23rd and 30th at 5.30pm at AFL Max. Come along and give it a go!

How time flies! This post was meant to go up a couple of weeks ago, but time just slipped away from me!

Recently, the Blind Sports SA board had the opportunity to take part in a hands-on session led by Specialist BLV sports coach, Kent. He guided us through the kinds of activities he delivers in schools, giving us a real insight into what participation in sport can look like for people who are blind or have low vision.

Kent shared some of the challenges that blind and low vision participants may experience across different sports and then led a great discussion about the simple but powerful modifications that can make these activities accessible. We explored a range of equipment, including adapted balls used in cricket, tennis and football.

It was such a fun and engaging session that some local kids who were on the playground nearby came over and joined in!

Do you play an accessible sport? If not, would you like to?
We love supporting people to get involved; it’s great for physical and mental health, and most importantly, it’s a lot of fun.

A group of us from Sky’s the Limit Disability Services went to see “Outside In” on Wednesday night at the Adelaide Fringe, and it was a fantastic night out.

Many of our clients are on the autism spectrum, and this show gave us a truly personal “inside view” of what it can feel like to experience the world with autism. Performer Matt, from the Gold Coast, shared his own story in a way that was funny, creative, honest and at times very moving.

The show took us on an emotional journey through different feelings and experiences, offering a rare and authentic insight into life with autism.

It was also a great social evening! We started the night with a meal and a drink at the West Oak Hotel , then headed to the show together.

Thank you, Matt, for such an entertaining and thoughtful performance. We hope you bring "Outside In" back to the Adelaide Fringe again next year!

🎶 A fabulous Adelaide Fringe show we highly recommend! 🎶

Last Saturday night, we had the pleasure of seeing Our Mothers’ Country Hearts at Cafe Komodo, a moving and entertaining show by Karl Zander and Andrea Duff.

At Sky’s the Limit Disability Services, we’re lucky to work with some incredible professionals in our community. Karl is a music therapist who has worked with one of our clients for many years, and through that relationship we’ve seen firsthand the powerful impact music can have for people living with disability.

In this Fringe show, Karl and Andrea share songs and stories about their mothers and the music they loved. It’s heartfelt, nostalgic and loads of fun.

There’s one show left on March 14 and we really encourage you to go along if you can.

Tickets: https://adelaidefringe.com.au/fringetix/our-mothers-country-hearts-af2026

Supporting great local artists and celebrating the power of music!

STLDS Friends Night Out!
Don't forget our Adelaide Fringe outing on Wednesday, 4 March!

We’re going to Outside In (Comedy - M rated)

This show is accessible, with audio description and Auslan interpretation.

We’ll be grabbing a meal before the show, so we can catch up properly and enjoy the evening together.
If you’d like to come along, please comment below or send us a message and we’ll organise tickets for you.

Finally, we want to share one of the most encouraging trends in the data: what it shows about employment outcomes over time.

For young people aged 15–24, employment rates increased from around 17% at entry to 33% at latest reassessment.

That matters because employment isn’t just income. It’s confidence, identity, independence and community connection.

This is why STLDS is committed to supporting people with visual impairment to build work readiness skills, including routines, travel confidence, community access and practical everyday independence.

18/02/2026

Next, we’re looking at what NDIS support looks like in practice including average support use across the visual impairment community.

Across Australia, the average payments for NDIS participants with visual impairment were around $45,400 per person for the year ending 30 June 2025 (up from $43,600 the previous year).

This is a useful reminder that NDIS plans aren’t just about equipment; they’re often about ongoing, practical supports that help people live safely and confidently in everyday life.

17/02/2026

Next, we’re looking at what NDIS support looks like in practice, including average support use across the visual impairment community.

The NDIS data shows that the biggest areas of support for participants with visual impairment are:

✅ Core – Daily Activities (everyday independence at home)
✅ Core – Community (getting out, accessing the community, staying connected)

These are also the areas that saw strong spending overall including a noticeable increase in community-related supports.

At STLDS, this is exactly where we focus: supporting people to build skills, routines, and confidence; not just “get tasks done”.

16/02/2026

Let’s start with the big picture: how many South Australians are actually on the NDIS with visual impairment?

Did you know there are 857 South Australians on the NDIS whose primary disability is recorded as visual impairment (as at 30 June 2025)?

That’s a significant community and a reminder of why accessible environments, safe community access and practical supports matter.

At STLDS, we’re proud to support people who are blind or have low vision to build independence, confidence and everyday skills.

This week: NDIS data spotlight (Visual impairment)

This week, we’re sharing a short series of posts using insights from the latest NDIS Quarterly Report to Ministers and the accompanying visual impairment data (to 30 June 2025).

We’ll be looking at things like:
- how many people in South Australia are on the NDIS with visual impairment
- what supports are most commonly used
- what plan funding looks like in practice
- and what the data shows about employment outcomes over time.

We’re sharing this because good information helps people make better decisions and because understanding the data can help participants, families and supporters get more out of the NDIS.

📌 Post 1 is coming tomorrow.
