International Day of People with Disability is this Wednesday 3 December.

Leading into this date we join our friends on the Illawarra Disability Alliance and in our community by celebrating the strength of collaboration in the disability sector through the “Better Together – Inclusion in Action" campaign.

The impact of true inclusion is transformative. At Cram, it’s something we think about every day. By creating accessible community spaces, thinking broadly and valuing diversity, we ensure everyone has the opportunity to live the life they choose.

Let’s work together to celebrate the rich diversity the Illawarra region has to offer. 💙

2025 Cram Christmas Party done! 🎄

The usual Cram chaos happened, there was music, dancing, lots of Christmas 'fashun' and a traditional Christmas lunch with all the trimmings.

We're so lucky to support the people we do, we wouldn't be anywhere else.

The Christmas season has officially BEGUN! 🎅🏻

An appreciation post for some of Cram’s admin staff. Although their work isn’t in our Participants’ homes, they’re still working hard to ensure our Participants and staff have everything they need.

Our thanks to Carol Berry MP for visiting Cram today. Your insight and knowledge of the industry is refreshing and it’s comforting to know that your approach is holistic from both the Participant and provider lens.

This week at Cram 💙

Absolutely wrapped to be the recipients of this grant. We can't wait to get started on making our reception area more accessible for our Participants.

🏛️ This afternoon I had the pleasure of visiting The Cram Foundation to present a $20,000 cheque from the NSW Government’s Community Building Partnership fund.

This funding will help transform Cram’s reception area into a fully inclusive space for people with disabilities by:

🔹 Installing automatic doors at accessible heights
🔹 Lowering the reception counter
🔹 Widening the training room door and frame
🔹 Installing new, level flooring
🔹 Painting both the reception and training room after renovations

Once complete, these upgrades will ensure the space is accessible to 100% of Cram’s Participants, a great step toward equity, dignity, and inclusion.

Today Cram did something new - we took part in Run Shellharbour as an organisation - staff, Participants and families - all up around 50 of us pounded the pavement in the 1km race. Thank you to Courtney and the team at Kao Creative for running a truly inclusive local event. The smiles on everyone’s faces when they crossed the finish line will stay with us for a very long time! What a day! 👩🏻‍🦽‍➡️🏃🏻‍♀️🩵
