Hi Kura Family!

Shona here, in the thick of it with this beautiful little girl. 😊
Just a quick one to say i hope you all had a marvellous christmas and new year, and thank you for your well wishes when Calliope was born. She's an absolute joy and we are so very blessed. πŸ’•

Some may have already noticed, but i am back from maternity leave at a REDUCED capacity. My phone and email is back in action should you need me. I am available. I am not, however, coming back on for active support shifts just yet. But I am excited to be back in the office, liaising with our staff, clients and stakeholders.

Rachael and Matt and our rostering champion, Becky, have done a marvellous job keeping things running and i am proud and lucky to have such a great team.

Here's to 2026 πŸ₯³ I am excited to see what this new year brings, and I look forward to seeing you all again soon.

Best wishes,
Shona. 😊

Hello Cassowary Coast!
As we are well into the swing of the silly season now, we would just like to remind you that as with every year, we operate right through the Christmas period! πŸ₯³πŸŽ…πŸ€ΆπŸŒ²

7 days a week, 365 days a year, we are dedicated to ensuring you and your loved ones, continue to receive the care you require and deserve. 😊

As with every year also, if you would like to cancel your usual support over the Christmas period, especially the public holidays to save funding, be sure to let us know in advance so you aren't charged for those days!

I (Shona) am still on maternity leave, however Matt, Rachael, and Becky, are still available for any questions, concerns, or scheduling related enquiries you may have.

Matt (Director).
Ph: 0450 711 986
@: m.dimech@kurasupport.com

Rachael (Service Coordinator).
Ph: 0413 257 062
@: r.stephenson@kurasupport.com

Becky (Staff Rostering and client schedules).
Ph: 0423 443 851

We hope this Christmas period is a SAFE and ENJOYABLE one for you all, and the man in the big red suit makes this year's Christmas wishes come true.

I, and the newest addition to our Kura family look forward to seeing you all again sometime in the new year. Best wishes to you all. ☺️

The man, the myth, the LEGEND, Chris, prepared and cooked his own battered fish today with the assistance of his lovely carers! πŸ₯³πŸ˜ŠπŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘

Chris we LOVE the smile and sense of pride written all over your face, we are also EXTREMELY proud of you, your achievements, the goals you are smashing, and your tenacity and drive to continue moving forward each and every day. 🩷

You are an inspiration to many, Chris. We can't wait to see what you cook up next. 🌸

Last night we held our staff Christmas party, (early due to Shona going on maternity leave).
This year we couldn't pass up the opportunity to present a few of our outstanding staff members with awards and gifts to thank them for their incredible efforts over this past year.

Here at Kura Support, we prioritise our clients and believe the well-being of our clients must always come first. However, we are also firm believers in recognising the hard work and dedication of our staff members, prioritising their well being, and making sure they know that they are valued and respected also. Because if our clients are unhappy, and our staff are unhappy, we are doing something wrong. Each month we award one, sometimes two! Staff members with employee of the month awards, and this year is our first year handing out special recognition awards and it is a practice we will continue to do each year moving forward.

How blessed are we, to have such an incredible team of people working with us. Kura Support definitely would not be what it is today, if it wasn't for our incredible staff members.

This year's Christmas party was a small affair as some staff were working and others already had prior commitments, so only half of our legendary team could attend, but it was still a great night regardless.

Congratulations to all of last night's award recipients, and thank you, to everyone single staff member of Kura Support, for all that you are and all that you do. We appreciate you. 😊🩷

Kura Support would like to welcome, and introduce you all to our new service coordinator, Rachael Stephenson. 🌸

Rachael will be the new friendly face at the forefront of operations alongside Matt, whilst Shona is on maternity leave.
Some of you may know and recognise Rachael as she has been an Innisfail local for many years, formerly delivering a long and impressive career with one of the local aged care facilities.

To all of our clients and your family, friends and respected carers, Rachael will be spending the next couple of weeks prioritising her time to come and meet you all and introduce herself and find out more about you and what she can do, to better assist you to help you reach your goals and assist with any questions or concerns you may have.

Welcome to Kura Support, Rachael. We look forward to working with you. 😊

Directors Shona and Matt ventured out to the Innisfail Riverfest this afternoon and got to catch up with long term client Chris enjoying the festivities with his carer. πŸ₯³
Many of you know Chris and his incredible story, he's a Kura Support legend in his own right. 🩷
It's not often that Shona and Matt get to see some of their participants these days, so it was definitely a wonderful and long overdue catch up!
Chris, you look great! Though maybe Shona needs to upgrade her wheelchair and see who's goes faster next time. πŸ˜‰πŸ˜†

We'd like to highlight one of our youngest participants, Genesis.
Genesis has been working incredibly hard over the last few months, working on skills to access the community safely, being mindful of our friends around us, practicing mindfulness, skill development, and regulating our big emotions. The progress Genesis is making has been incredible. Genesis has a wonderful relationship with her carers, Desley and K**a who have really aided in the progress Genesis has made, but at the end of the day, Genesis is the superstar in her story, and this is just one chapter. We are so incredibly proud of you, Gen! We love seeing that beautiful smile and receiving the photos of your adventures, keep up the great work! ☺️🌼🌸🌞
