Goals in a plan are a starting point. How do they translate into everyday skills and engagement- and how can you see what’s changing? 🌱

This is how we BUILD.

BUILD is Beyond Daily Life’s 12-week, one-to-one, goal-focused support program, helping participants work towards greater confidence, participation and independence.
Participants work towards practical goals such as cooking, household routines, community access, communication, social skills, emotional regulation, engagement and participation.

Personal goals are broken into practical steps, with:
✅ Purposeful skill building during support sessions
✅ Progress recorded after each shift
✅ Structured fortnightly reviews
✅ A clear 12-week outcomes report

Developed by a registered mental health nurse and a master’s-qualified counsellor, with the participant’s voice guiding their goals and reviews.

Billing: Supports may be billed under Capacity Building or Core, depending on the BUILD pathway, the participant’s plan and applicable funding requirements.

A one-off 2-hour non-face-to-face charge applies for program setup, assessment and reporting.

Introducing BUILD 🌱

A structured 12-week, 1:1 support program designed to make everyday supports more purposeful, measurable and connected to the participant’s goals.

Three pathways are available:

🌱 BUILD — develop new skills through Capacity Building supports
🌱 BUILD Core — purposeful, goal-focused everyday support
🌱 BUILD Core+ — build initiation, follow-through and greater independence

Throughout the 12 weeks, participants work towards clear goals and focus areas, a brief BUILD assessment is completed after each shift, progress is reviewed every fortnight, participant voice is captured, and the program finishes with a clear Outcomes Report.

For families, this means a better understanding of what the participant is working towards, what is improving, where support is still needed and what the next steps should be.

For Support Coordinators, BUILD provides clearer evidence of progress, support needs and outcomes - helping demonstrate that funded supports are purposeful and aligned with the participant’s goals.

Billing is straightforward:
• BUILD is billed through relevant Capacity Building funding
• BUILD Core and BUILD Core+ are billed through Core funding
• A one-off 2-hour non-face-to-face charge covers program setup, ongoing assessments and report writing across the 12 weeks

The goal is simple: make every support shift count.

BUILD is now accepting expressions of interest in Cairns.

Supporting health and wellbeing - one step at a time 💪

For some participants, meaningful support might mean getting out into the community, becoming more active and building a routine around health and wellbeing.

Our individual supports are tailored around what matters to each participant - their goals, interests, confidence and pace.

Whether it’s the gym, walking, community activities or building a healthier weekly routine, the goal is support with purpose.

Capacity Building in action 👨‍🍳

Building skills doesn’t have to happen in a classroom. It can happen in the kitchen, at home and out in the community - wherever the skill actually matters.

Practical cooking sessions can support participants to build confidence, learn meal preparation, develop routines and work towards greater independence.

For participants who want a more structured approach, our new 12-week BUILD Capacity Building Program adds clear goals, regular progress tracking and a final outcomes report.

Interested in BUILD or our individual Capacity Building supports?

Message Beyond Daily Life or email [email protected] to find out more.

This is what purposeful support can look like.

After completing his daily routine and working through the things he needed to get done, this participant chose to reward himself with some well-earned arcade time.

At Beyond Daily Life, we use participants’ interests to help build motivation, routine and follow-through - while still making support enjoyable.

It’s not just about getting out into the community. It’s about creating structure, working towards goals and celebrating the wins along the way.

📈 Capacity Building should help people become more independent - not just get tasks done.

Introducing BUILD - Beyond Daily Life’s structured 12-week Capacity Building program.

BUILD turns NDIS goals into practical skills that can be assessed, taught, practised and measured over time.

We track meaningful changes in independence, confidence, consistency, safety and the level of prompting or assistance required - so progress is based on evidence, not guesswork.

BUILD includes an initial assessment, structured skill development, session-by-session evidence, six fortnightly progress reviews and a final assessment. At the end of the program, stakeholders receive a comprehensive outcome report with measurable results, a visual progress graph, current support needs and clear recommendations for next steps.

Want to see how BUILD works?

Message us here on Facebook or email [email protected] and we’ll send you some free BUILD resources for participants, families, Support Coordinators and referrers.

*BUILD supports are billed through the participant’s relevant Capacity Building funding in line with the current NDIS pricing schedule. No program fees or hidden
costs.
