Connection looks different for everyone 💜

For many neurodivergent people, traditional social and dating platforms can feel overwhelming, inaccessible or simply not designed with their needs in mind.

That’s where comes in.

Wable is a social networking app created specifically for neurodivergent people, providing a space to make friends, explore dating, build community connections and access valuable support resources.

What we love most is their focus on belonging. Through sensory-friendly design, safety features and neuroinclusive resources, Wable is helping create a world where people can connect authentically and confidently.

At TomCare, we’re passionate about sharing organisations and resources that promote inclusion, independence and meaningful community participation and Wable is doing exactly that.

A meal is never just a meal. 🧡

For many people, it’s comfort.
It’s dignity.
It’s hope.

And sometimes, it’s the difference between getting through the day and going without.
That’s why we’re proud to support an incredible organisation dedicated to ensuring no one faces hunger alone.

What began as one person cooking meals for healthcare workers during the pandemic has grown into a movement delivering thousands of nutritious meals to Australians experiencing hardship.

At TomCare, we believe everyone deserves access to life’s essentials, which is why we’re proud to contribute 500 meals each month to support their mission.

We’re also looking forward to attending the upcoming Feast to Feed Gala and celebrating the impact Alex Makes Meals continues to make in our community.

At TomCare, supporting people has always been at the heart of what we do. 🧡

That’s why we’re proud to support Orange Sky through ongoing monthly donations.

Orange Sky provides free laundry, warm showers and genuine conversation to Australians experiencing homelessness and hardship. Their services go beyond meeting practical needs – they create opportunities for dignity, connection and belonging.

As part of our commitment, we’ll be helping fund 10 Orange Sky services each month.
We know that meaningful change happens when communities come together to support one another, and we’re grateful to play a small part in the incredible work Orange Sky does every day.

Thank you, Orange Sky, for making a difference in the lives of so many Australians. 🧡

Parenting a child with disability can bring emotions that seem contradictory.

Pride and worry.
Joy and exhaustion.
Hope and grief.
Sometimes all in the same day.

These feelings don’t cancel each other out. They can exist together.

At TomCare, we understand that reality because our organisation was built from lived experience.

Founder Sarah Alcock has spent more than 16 years navigating disability alongside her son Tom, and knows firsthand the challenges, advocacy, milestones and emotions that come with the journey.

To every parent, carer and family member walking a similar path: your feelings are valid, and you don’t have to carry them alone. 💙

Accessibility can show up in places you might not expect 👟

was created after founder Billy Price sustained a spinal cord injury and recognised the need for shoes that were easier to put on and take off independently.

Their innovative zipper design allows the shoe to open wide, making them a practical option for people who wear orthotics, use braces, experience limited mobility or have dexterity challenges.

It’s a great reminder that accessibility isn’t always about major infrastructure or policy changes. Sometimes it’s the everyday products we use that can make the biggest difference to independence, confidence and quality of life.

We love highlighting businesses and innovations that are helping make the world more accessible, inclusive and empowering for people with disability.

Behind every support worker at TomCare is a unique story, skill set and life experience.

Our team includes people studying nursing, psychology, teaching and occupational therapy. 

Some are completing Masters degrees, some volunteer in their communities, and some bring lived experience of disability themselves.

Many also have experience supporting people with complex needs, including PEG feeding, communication devices and non-verbal communication.

Different backgrounds. Different experiences. One shared purpose.

To provide thoughtful, compassionate support that helps people live full and enriching lives.

We’re currently growing our team and are always interested in hearing from passionate people who want to make a genuine difference.
