💚 Let’s Talk About Cerebral Palsy 💚

Cerebral palsy (CP) is a lifelong physical disability that affects how a person moves, controls their muscles, and maintains balance and posture.

Cerebral palsy is caused by damage to the developing brain, usually before or during birth, or shortly after.

🧠 What is Cerebral Palsy?

Cerebral palsy can affect:

Muscle control and coordination

Movement and posture

Balance and mobility

Speech and communication

Eating and swallowing

Cerebral palsy does not get worse over time, but a person’s needs may change as they grow.

🌱 Living with Cerebral Palsy

People with cerebral palsy may:

Use mobility aids such as wheelchairs, walkers, or orthotics

Need support with daily activities

Communicate in different ways

Experience fatigue or muscle stiffness

Live full, active, and meaningful lives

Cerebral palsy does not affect intelligence for many people, although some individuals may also have learning or communication differences.

📊 Types of Cerebral Palsy

Spastic CP – muscle stiffness and tightness
Dyskinetic CP – involuntary movements
Ataxic CP – balance and coordination difficulties
Mixed CP – a combination of types

🤝 Support Makes a Difference

Support may include:

Physiotherapy and occupational therapy

Speech therapy

Assistive technology

Support workers and community access

With the right supports, people with cerebral palsy can achieve their goals and live independently.

🌈 Understanding Builds Inclusion

Cerebral palsy is part of human diversity.
When we understand and include, everyone benefits 💚

Meet Richard C 👋

Richard has asked me to share his story to remind us how powerful the simple things can be — like getting out for a meal — when living with schizophrenia and navigating medication and daily supports.

After experiencing many stages of schizophrenia, Richard is now enjoying a more balanced life with the proper support while remaining independent. He’s also a founding member of Mountain Support Services and proudly served 18 months in the Navy aboard HMAS Brisbane 🇦🇺⚓

Recently, we shared a pub meal and an honest conversation about ageing, independence, and how support needs evolve. These moments matter — and they’re exactly why inclusive, person-centred support is so important.

If this resonates with you, we encourage you to keep these conversations going in your own communities.

💙 Let’s Talk About Tourette Syndrome 💙

Tourette syndrome is a neurological condition that causes a person to have tics.

Tics are movements or sounds that happen suddenly and are not done on purpose.
People cannot simply “stop” them.

🧠 What Are Tics?

There are two main types of tics:

Motor tics

Blinking

Facial movements

Head or shoulder movements

Vocal tics

Throat clearing

Sniffing

Humming or other sounds

Tics can change over time and may be more noticeable when someone is:

Stressed

Anxious

Excited

Tired

🌱 Living with Tourette Syndrome

People with Tourette syndrome may:

Feel self-conscious or misunderstood

Try to hide or suppress tics, which can be tiring

Have good days and harder days

Also experience ADHD, anxiety, or OCD

Tourette syndrome does not affect intelligence.

With understanding and support, people with Tourette syndrome can live confident, independent, and meaningful lives.

🤝 How to Be Supportive

You can help by:

Being patient and kind

Not pointing out tics

Allowing breaks when needed

Treating the person the same as everyone else

Acceptance makes a big difference 💙

🌈 Understanding Leads to Inclusion

Tourette syndrome is part of neurodiversity.
Learning and understanding help's create safe and inclusive communities for everyone.

💛 Let’s Talk About ADHD 💛

ADHD stands for Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder.
It is a neurodevelopmental condition that affects how a person focuses, manages energy, controls impulses, and organises daily life.

ADHD is not laziness or bad behaviour.
It is a different way the brain works.

🧠 What is ADHD?

ADHD can affect:

Attention and focus
Organisation and memory
Impulse control
Energy levels and restlessness
Emotional regulation

People with ADHD may find some things harder — but they also have many strengths.

🌱 Living with ADHD Day to Day

People with ADHD may:

Struggle to concentrate for long periods
Feel restless or need to move often
Find it hard to start or finish tasks
Become overwhelmed easily
Experience big emotions
Be creative, energetic, and passionate

With the right supports, people with ADHD can thrive at school, work, and in daily life.

📊 Types of ADHD

ADHD can look different for each person:

Inattentive Type
Difficulty focusing
Forgetful or easily distracted
May seem quiet or withdrawn
Hyperactive-Impulsive Type
High energy
Acts without thinking
Finds it hard to sit still
Combined Type
A mix of inattentive and hyperactive traits

👉 ADHD can change over time and looks different in children and adults.

🤝 Support Makes a Difference

Helpful supports may include:

Clear routines and structure
Visual reminders and planners
Movement breaks
Therapy or coaching
Understanding and patience

ADHD does not define a person’s potential.

💙 Understanding Leads to Inclusion

When we understand ADHD, we create spaces where people feel supported, valued, and included.

Different brains bring different strengths 💛

💙 Let’s Talk About Autism 💙

Autism is something a person is born with.
It lasts for their whole life.

Autism affects:

How people communicate.
How they understand others.
How they experience the world.

Everyone with autism is different.

🧠 What is Autism?

Autism can affect how a person:

Talks or communicates.
Understands social situations.
Feels about sounds, lights, or touch.
Follows routines and rules.
Manages feelings and emotions.

Autism is not an illness.
It does not need to be “fixed”.

Autism is a different way of thinking and learning.

🌱 Living with Autism Every Day

Autistic people may:

Like routines and knowing what will happen.
Feel overwhelmed in loud or busy places.
Communicate in different ways.
(talking, pictures, devices, or gestures)
Have strong interests that they really enjoy.
Need extra time, patience, or support.

With the right support, autistic people can live happy and meaningful lives.

📊 Levels of Autism (Support Needs)

Levels help explain how much support someone may need.
They do not describe how smart or capable a person is.

Level 1 – Needs Some Support.

May need help with social skills or change.
Often independent with guidance.

Level 2 – Needs More Support.

Needs regular help with communication and routines.
Benefits from a clear structure.

Level 3 – Needs a Lot of Support.

Needs ongoing help with daily life and safety.
Support helps the person feel safe and included.

👉 Support needs can change over time.

🤝 Acceptance Matters

Autism looks different for everyone.
Kindness, understanding, and patience make a big difference.

Different does not mean less 💙

🔥 Extreme Heat Alert – Let’s Look Out for Each Other 🔥

With temperatures rising, extreme heat can be dangerous — especially for the elderly, people with disabilities, and those with health conditions.

Please take a moment to check in on elderly family members, friends, neighbours, and anyone who may need extra support. A quick call, visit, or message can make a big difference.

In extreme heat, remember to:
💧 Drink plenty of water (even if you don’t feel thirsty)
🏠 Stay indoors during the hottest part of the day
❄️ Use air-conditioning or fans where possible
🧢 Wear light, loose clothing and sun protection
🥗 Eat light meals
🚿 Take cool showers or use a damp cloth to cool down
🚗 Never leave people or pets in cars — even for a short time

Signs of heat stress can include dizziness, headache, nausea, confusion, or extreme fatigue. If someone becomes unwell, seek medical help immediately.

Let’s stay safe, stay cool, and look out for one another during this hot weather ❤️
