NDIS Participant FAQs
How can we access the service?
Give us a call or use the contact form to get in touch. Or if you prefer, the participants support coordinator can contact us on your behalf.
What are the therapeutic benefits of outdoor mentorship and adventure activities?
We use outdoor mentorship to engage participants in adventure activities, using the natural environment as a therapeutic tool in our supports. The purpose is not the activity itself, rather the learning opportunities provided by the activities and being surrounded by nature.
Desired outcomes include the development of personal responsibility, cooperation and relationship building, intrapsychic outcomes, social skill acquisition, psychological resilience, and personal growth attributes such as self-awareness, self-efficacy and self-confidence.
