December 2023

Here we are at the end of the year! Heading into Christmas and New Years is an exciting time with most of our office team getting a break at one point or another, but the show never stops running in Disability Support.

Participant highlight - Ralph

Having come on board with us early on, Ralph has been a part of The Companion Group for over 5 years now. Over this time he has built some strong connections with his Support Work crew he describes as wonderful. This year Ralph wanted to do something special, so he got the team together for a delicious Christmas lunch at Caruggi.

That’s a wrap

Congratulations for making it to the end of the year.

December is a time for celebration and reflection on the year that has passed, and to look forward to what 2024 has in store for us.

The Companion Group achieved many of it’s own goals this year, while supporting our participants to achieve theirs.

In January, we passed our mid-term NDIS audit with flying colours.

April hosted our first ever family and friends picnic at Rippleside Park.

June introduced Leanne, the seventh member of the TCG office (and super star service coordinator).

September brought us together for our staff brush ‘n bubbles night, check out the blog post for that!

Over the year we were also able to deliver a new staff training platform, launch our new website, and welcome 16 new Companions to the group.

Our brilliant team helped to support roughly 122 participants, by delivering more than 32,000 hours of individual support and travelling more than 166,000kms with our participants on community access adventures.

Cheers to another excellent year, and here’s to an exciting 2024!
