Engaging opportunities for connection and enjoyment
Social & Recreational Activities (0116)
We provide NDIS-approved social and recreational activities designed to help participants connect with others, build friendships, and enjoy meaningful experiences in their communities.
This service is ideal for individuals seeking to improve social skills, increase confidence, and participate in inclusive events, outings, and hobby-based activities tailored to their interests, needs, and personal goals.
Meaningful Connections Through Tailored Activities
Promoting engagement, confidence, and community involvement
We believe social and recreational activities should be more than just leisure—they should create lasting connections, foster personal growth, and enhance quality of life.
Our approach combines careful planning with participant-led choices, ensuring every activity reflects individual interests and cultural backgrounds. From small group outings to larger community events, we design experiences that build confidence, independence, and a sense of belonging.
Our skilled and compassionate support workers focus on creating a safe, welcoming environment where participants can explore new interests, practice social skills, and enjoy shared experiences.
Whether meeting friends at a local café in Orana Heights, joining a community workshop in Dubbo Grove, or exploring cultural festivals across Dubbo, we ensure every activity is inclusive, accessible, and enjoyable.
With clear communication, flexible scheduling, and respect for each participant’s comfort level, we go beyond simply organising events—we make every interaction an opportunity for growth, empowerment, and positive connection.
Our dedication to NDIS compliance, cultural sensitivity, and personalised care means participants and families can trust us to deliver activities that enrich daily life and strengthen community ties.
Your Questions About Our Activities Answered
What types of activities are available?
We offer a variety of inclusive options, including group outings, creative workshops, sports, cultural events, and hobby-based programs. All activities are tailored to participant interests, ensuring they are engaging, accessible, and enjoyable while supporting social skill development and community involvement.
How do you match activities to participants?
We work closely with participants and their families to understand interests, abilities, and goals. Using this information, we recommend or design activities that align with personal preferences while encouraging new experiences and social interaction in a safe, supportive environment.
Can you provide one-on-one support?
Yes, we offer both group and one-on-one social and recreational support. This flexibility ensures participants receive the right level of assistance, whether they prefer shared group experiences or more personalised activities at their own pace.
Are the activities NDIS-funded?
Most of our social and recreational activities can be funded through an NDIS plan under community participation supports. We can guide you through the process to ensure services are aligned with your funding and goals.
Do you support outings outside Dubbo?
Yes, while many activities are based in Dubbo and nearby suburbs like Dubbo Grove and Orana Heights, we also support travel to surrounding areas within participant comfort and NDIS guidelines, making sure all outings are planned for accessibility and safety.
How do you ensure safety during activities?
We follow strict NDIS safety protocols, including risk assessments, participant-specific support plans, and trained staff supervision. Our focus is on creating a safe, inclusive, and enjoyable environment for every participant.
Before joining, I felt isolated and hesitant to join community activities. The team encouraged me to try a local art class in Dubbo Grove, and they provided patient, friendly support every step. Now, I attend regularly, have made friends, and feel more confident speaking up in group settings. It has truly changed how I connect with others.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️I wanted to get more involved in social activities but needed help with transport and confidence. Kindrise organised small group outings around Orana Heights and Dubbo, matching them to my interests. Their staff made me feel comfortable and supported, and I now look forward to every event. I’ve even started trying new hobbies thanks to their encouragement.
