Welcome to the March/April
“What’s on” recreation guide
Thanks everyone that attended the Planning Meeting in January,
there were heaps of great activity suggestions. I will try and tick
them all off the list as we move through the year.
Due to popular demand Nepean Social Club will be running a
separate group for people aged 18 to 24. Please see the flyer in
this booklet for more information.
On the 7th of March I thought we might try something new- A
Cuppa and a Catch up. This activity will meet at a local café on an
afternoon for those of you who feel like meeting up. Members
will need to book in the usual way for this activity. Please feel
free to email or call me and tell me what you think of the Cuppa
and a catch up– feedback is always welcomed.
As requested we will be going to the Richmond Disco in March.
April is nearly here so that means a trip for NSC to the Royal
Easter show...that's always a popular one!
Any questions feel free to call me on 9623 9855 or email
kfindlater@nado.org.au
Chat soon,
Kristie :)

Nepean Social Club
New group for people
18-24 years
This group is designed to promote independence and personal
growth of its members.
Due to popular demand Nepean Social Club will be running a separate
group for people aged 18 to 24. Members of this group will be encouraged
to decide on a name for the group and time will be allocated at each outing
for planning of the next activity. As this is a low support group it is a
requirement that members have money handling skills. Members will be
asked to research for activities independently to suggest to the group. The
group will plan and decide on which activity they will do at the next outing.
If you are interested in joining this exciting new group please contact us
so a time can be arranged for an assessment.
This group will only go ahead numbers permitting so please call 9623 9855
and register your interest or email Kristie kfindlater@nado.org.au

are committed to providing the support necessary to achieve this.
What support needs do you cater for?
A majority of Tours 4 trips are 1:5 ratio and are suitable for people with intellectual
disabilities who have low to moderate support needs.
I have a client/family member with high support needs. Can they go on a
holiday with you?
NADO would assess this on a case by case basis. Please call Kristie on 9623 9855
to discuss this.

Tours 4 U is a fee for service project. It does not receive any type of funding. The
holiday cost covers accommodation, support staff, transport and in some cases
meals and activity entry.
