We recommend you put a “No Trafficking” clause in your NDIS provider contracts to cover child protection & adult guardianship! 💜

Our cooking program was a HIT!!!! 👏🏼

Once a week on Wednesday’s, our clients attended the MDSS Buronga Hub for a fun, engaging and capacity building day program.

Upon completion they all received a certificate of completion which as you can see, made them proud of punch. 💜

But…as proud as they all are, they’re not nearly as proud as we are!! 🙌🏻

Congratulations to our clients who participated at MDSS. 🤩

Our next program starts term 3. We’re looking forward to meeting new clients and welcoming our regulars back for another round. 👏🏼

We’re looking for Disability Support Workers based in Ouyen.

Not everyone is suited to this work. We’re looking for people who genuinely care, show up when they say they will, and understand that the little things can make a big difference in someone’s day.

If you have experience in disability support, or you’re looking to build a meaningful career helping others live independently and achieve their goals, we’d love to hear from you.

To be considered, you’ll need a current Working With Children Check, NDIS Worker Screening Check, First Aid and CPR, and the required NDIS training modules.

At Mildura Disability Support Services, you’ll be joining a team that values respect, courage, integrity, reliability, and putting participants first.

If this sounds like you, apply through our website at milduradisability.support by visiting the Support Team page and completing the Employment Application Form.

We’d love to welcome some great people to our growing team. 💙

Why did I start Mildura Disability Support Services?

Because I knew I could take my passion, advocacy & care from my lived experience with Benjamin, into a company, to provide the highest possible support service to families and people living with a disability.

The company was never created to provide support to Benjamin.

I wish we could.
Not for financial gain but because I know MDSS would do an amazing job with him.

Just like we do for all of our clients.

Because they’re not just clients to us.

They’re our MDSS family.

I hope you enjoy this vid as much as I did filming it.

Love always,
Narelle

One thing I've learnt after years in disability support, aged care and advocacy is that people can feel intention.

Participants can feel it.
Clients can feel it.
Families can feel it.

People know when someone genuinely cares and wants the best for them. They also know when something doesn't feel right.

Many people underestimate those living with disabilities or older Australians. They assume they won't notice things. In my experience, the opposite is true.

People know when they're being listened to.

They know when they're being respected.

And they know when they're being treated as a person rather than a funding package.

Disability support and aged care should never be about financial gain.

Yes, organisations need to be sustainable to keep providing services, but making money should never be the reason we get out of bed in the morning.

The reason should always be people.

At Mildura Disability Support Services, we have built our organisation on lived experience, advocacy and a genuine commitment to doing what is right.

We will always stand up for vulnerable people.

We will always advocate when something isn't right.

We will always challenge systems, providers or practices that place organisational interests ahead of the people they are supposed to support.

Because eventually, intentions reveal themselves.

The providers and workers who are genuinely in this industry for the right reasons earn trust.

The ones who aren't eventually lose it.

Every decision we make is guided by our values of respect, integrity and courage.

Not because they're words on a poster.

Because they're the standard we hold ourselves to every day. 💜

Last Wednesday, several of our team members attended sessions with Matt and Ben “Legless and Blind.” They spoke about resilience, adversity, curiosity, and what true inclusion in the workplace actually looks like. Their message didn’t just land; it lingered.

Last Thursday, during our Biggest Morning Tea, we raised $600 for cancer a cause that touches every single one of us in different ways. But the most meaningful part wasn’t the fundraising. It was the time spent simply sitting with participants and their families. No billing. No rush. Just real, human connection.

In those conversations, we heard stories from people who have been overlooked, dismissed, or let down people who have had to fight their way toward feeling safe, heard, and seen. And while we all know what struggle feels like, the people we support often carry layers of complexity that make their journey even heavier.

So today, I want to offer a powerful, heartfelt acknowledgment.

To the people who keep standing up, even when life has knocked them down more times than anyone should have to endure.

To those who were dealt a tough hand but still show up with courage and heart.
To the families, carers, and supporters who walk beside them, often quietly and without recognition.

We see you.

We hear you.

And we are here for you.

We are not driven by profit. We are driven by people.

By genuine care.

By real support from humans who understand the weight life can place on someone’s shoulders.

This is who we are.

This is what we stand for.
