🌸💖 Happy Valentine’s Day! 💖🌸
We’ve had a fantastic week capturing the Valentine’s spirit from participants and support staff, from creating heartfelt crafts for their loved ones to sharing meals together. 💕
We’ve also witnessed pure joy, like a little country boy’s love for Land Cruisers 🚙 and the excitement on faces as support workers and participants explored the shops filled with teddies and flowers! 🧸🌹

Enjoying new Foods 🌟🍽️

At Disability Connect NSW, we love seeing people try new things, and enjoy the experience while doing it!
With a little encouragement, two participants gave new breakfast foods a go.

No complaints, just smiles! 😊👏 It's all about stepping outside the comfort zone at your own pace, with no pressure just support, encouragement, and a bit of fun along the way.
