🌍💚 World Mental Health Day 2025 💚🌍
Today, we acknowledge that mental health is a universal human right.
Everyone, everywhere, deserves access to the support they need to live well.
👉 1 in 5 Australians experience a mental health condition every year.
👉 Early support and open conversations can make a real difference.
👉 Access to services, community connection and reducing stigma are key to change.
On this World Mental Health Day, let’s remember:
Mental health is just as important as physical health.
Seeking help is a sign of strength, not weakness.
Together, we can build more inclusive, supportive communities.
💚 If you or someone you know is struggling, reach out to a GP, mental health professional, or call Lifeline on 13 11 14.

🌟 October is ADHD Awareness Month 2025 🌟
This year’s theme is about understanding, acceptance, and breaking down stigma. 💛
At The Support People, we celebrate the strengths and individuality of people living with ADHD. ADHD isn’t just about challenges; it’s also about creativity, energy, problem-solving, and unique ways of seeing the world.
📣 Whether you live with ADHD, support someone who does, or want to learn more, this month is a chance to spread awareness and embrace different ways of thinking.
💛 You are not alone. You are supported. You are valued.

🌼 R U OK? Day 2025 🌼
Today is a reminder to check in with the people around you: family, friends, colleagues, neighbours. A simple question, “Are you OK?”, can open the door to a meaningful conversation and let someone know they’re not alone. 💛
👉 Take the time to pause, listen, and show you care.
👉 You don’t need to have all the answers — just being there can make a difference.
Together, we can create a community where everyone feels supported, valued, and heard.
So, who will you check in with today? 💬

Established in 2018, Next Step Disability Services Pty Ltd (NSDS) provides a range of support services for adults with disability in Ballarat, Bendigo and surrounding areas. Originally established to provide a community hub, community access, personal skill development programs and personalised care for people living in Ballarat, NSDS has grown to support over 100 clients in regional Victoria. The rapid growth of our organisation in its first 12 months, is reflective of our focus on delivering high quality, person centred support.
More recently, we have expanded our services to ‘round the clock’ support for persons choosing to live in their own home. We are enthusiastic about the future possibilities for people to live as independently as possible in a supported independent living arrangement, and to position ourselves to meet this demand; and believe our wealth of prior experience in supported residential service accommodation has us well placed to make this a reality.
We are equally excited by our newly established Youth Headquarters (YHQ) which supports 18-25 years olds to have fun and learn new skills.
Our Mission - To enrich the lives of people through individualised services, delivered with a sense of warmth and friendliness, that empower people with disability to live their best life.
Our Vision - To be a leading provider of quality services in regional Victoria, creating an inclusive world where people with disability live enriched lives of their choosing with our support.
Our Values - Our values underpin everything we do.
