🤶🎅🎄Tis’ the season to be Merry 🎄🎅🤶
It’s been a busy few weeks here at A&K Support Services getting our amazing participants out and about, from shopping & lunch dates, relaxing days by the beach making unforgettable memories and throwing a line in catching the BIG one. Mr B was super impressed with his catch & so were we too. 🐟😃☕️🎣

💜💚💙Happy World Kindness Day 💙💚💜

What is World Kindness Day?
World Kindness Day is a global day that promotes the importance of being kind to each other, to yourself, and to the world.

If every Australian performed an act of kindness on World Kindness Day, we would have 25 million acts of kindness in a single day.

The possibilities are endless – together let’s make Australia kinder.

They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old;
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning
We will remember them ❤️

Creating Memories, One Reunion at a Time 💓✨ This past week, A&K Support Services had the privilege of reuniting Mrs. S with her family and hometown in Mackay. The experience was truly unforgettable, filled with amazing moments that tugged at our heartstrings and left us with a deep sense of fulfillment. We look forward to continuing to support Mrs. S in reconnecting with her roots, fostering meaningful relationships, and nurturing her spiritual, cultural, and ancestral ties, where her connection to the land is inextricably linked to her identity.

✨✨Autism is a neurotype — a natural variation in how the brain works, processes, and experiences the world. Some autistic people have extraordinary strengths. Some face significant challenges. Most live somewhere in between — just like anyone else. ✨✨

It’s time to move past extremes and stereotypes. Let’s honour autism for what it truly is: a valid, valuable way of being human.

They’re used to support mobility, communication, and everyday tasks, helping people participate in work, education, community life, and social activities—just like anyone else. Disability aids aren’t about limitation; they’re about creating opportunities, removing barriers, and ensuring everyone can live life on their terms. 💜💚🧡💛💙

Remember: using a disability aid is a sign of strength, not weakness. It’s about accessing your full potential and being included in every part of life. Together, we can normalize support and make our communities truly accessible for all.

💚🧡 Inclusion is more than just letting someone be present, it’s about truly seeing them, valuing their voice, and creating spaces where they can fully participate and thrive. 💜💙 It’s about breaking down barriers, challenging assumptions, and embracing the idea that every person, no matter their ability, has something important to contribute. Inclusion is a mindset, a practice, and a promise to ensure everyone belongs. Together, we can build a world where differences aren’t just accepted, they’re celebrated. ✨

How to Support Your Friend with a Disabled Child:

Listen Without Judgment: Sometimes the best support is simply listening. Let them share challenges, joys, or frustrations without offering unsolicited advice.

Offer Practical Help: Tasks like cooking a meal, running errands, or babysitting siblings can ease daily stress. Be specific in your offers—“Can I drop off dinner on Wednesday?” works better than a general “Let me know if you need help.”

Educate Yourself: Learn about their child’s condition, therapies, or needs. Understanding the situation helps you provide informed and empathetic support.

Be Inclusive: Invite them and their child to activities, but don’t pressure them if participation isn’t feasible. Accessibility and flexibility matter.

Respect Boundaries: Every family’s situation is different. Respect their routines, privacy, and choices.

Celebrate Achievements: Recognize milestones, big or small. Positive encouragement goes a long way.

Avoid Comparisons: Every child develops differently. Avoid comparing their child to others—it can be unintentionally hurtful.

Check In Regularly: Consistent, genuine connection matters more than grand gestures. Even a short message asking how they’re doing can make a difference.
