FAQ #2: “What is happening to social and capacity building budgets?”

This is another common question we’re hearing as NDIS changes continue to roll out.

At this stage, there are no changes to funding for essential daily living supports such as cooking, cleaning and personal care. The legislation is still being discussed in parliament with no outcome so far.

🦆🍦 A recent trip to Mawson lakes was the sweetest in multiple ways! We spent the afternoon feeding some beautiful ducks, then enjoyed a sweet treat at St Louis ice cream.

The Mawson Lakes loop is wheelchair accessible the entire way, and at 2.2km long is a great way to enjoy some sunshine and enjoy watching all manner of birdlife frolic in their beautiful habitat.

With a number of cafes and sweet-treat spots nearby, we think it's a perfect way to spend the day!

When someone is anxious, overwhelmed, or triggered, the brain can act as if danger is present, even when it isn’t. In those moments, these simple, practical tools can help bring your mind back to a place of calm:

👉 Grounding:
As quickly as you can, name 5 things you see, 4 things you feel, 3 things you hear, 2 things you smell, and 1 thing you can taste. This exercise gently pulls your attention out of racing thoughts and back into the present moment.

👉 Disrupt the spiral physically:
Hold an ice cube or splash your face with cold water. A brief physical sensation can interrupt the stress response and help reset your mind.

👉 Let the spiral out:
Write down your thoughts without filtering them. Whether it’s in a journal, your notes app, or a voice note, giving those thoughts somewhere to go can make them feel more manageable.

👉 Take a breath:
Step away from screens. Dim the lights or close your eyes. Find a quiet space or use noise-cancelling headphones, and take a few slow, deep breaths to steady your body.

These small actions may seem simple, but when anxiety takes over, they can help you quickly regain a sense of calm and control.

Winter is here! So here are some healthy reminders…

📚 Read a book - whether you love a paperback, or an audio book, hit up your local library and let your mind wander into a fictional place, or grow your knowledge with something non-fiction.
☀️ Soak up some sunlight - even in winter, getting outside for a little sunshine and fresh air can really help boost your mood and wellbeing.
🍲 Enjoy nourishing winter meals - soups, slow-cooked meals, and seasonal veggies are a great way to fuel your body during the colder months.
🧘 Move your body - yoga, tai-chi, gentle stretches or a brisk walk, 30 mins of gentle exercise each day will drastically improve your physical and mental health.

Your health and wellbeing are built through the little things you do consistently. Simple daily habits can make a big difference.

Remember to check back in next month for more simple, healthy reminders 🍎

🌟 We are thrilled to share that Deanna has recently completed her training in the “Program for Supporting Autistic Social Entrepreneurs” pilot program. Deanna works in our School Leaver Employment Supports program and is dedicated to helping young people with disabilities transition from school into the workforce. She gained valuable insights throughout the course and is excited to apply this knowledge to further strengthen her work in the disability and employment support space. Deanna had this to say about the program:

“The things that I enjoyed about this program were learning about the strengths-based and neurodiversity affirming approach, the SPACE Framework (sensory, predictability, acceptance, communication and empathy) and applying it to how I can make my workplace better to meet the needs of autistic participants, how a person can develop initiatives and innovations using their monotropic interests and learning about Autistic entrepreneurial ecosystems.”

A special thank you to Sharon Zivkovic, program founder, for delivering such a knowledgeable, enjoyable, and inclusive program.

It’s this commitment to further upskilling and providing the very best to the participants she works with that makes Deanna such a valued part of the connexion_one team. Well done Deanna! 🌟

FAQ #1: “Will I still qualify for the NDIS under the new rules?”

This is one of the biggest questions people are asking right now.

While the NDIS is moving toward assessing people based more on their day-to-day support needs rather than just diagnosis, current participants are not expected to lose access overnight.

The focus is shifting to how a disability impacts everyday life - things like communication, mobility, self-care and social interaction.

As changes continue to roll out, having strong supporting evidence and clear documentation around functional impact will become more important than ever.
