Community Access
Our community access supports help people take part in everyday activities, make choices about their time and money, and feel more connected to their local community.
What is Community Access?
Community access supports participants to get out into the community and take part in activities that are meaningful to them. This can include assistance with transport, planning, and support while out and about, based on individual goals and preferences.
Everyday Activities,
Chosen by You
Community access may include visits to the grocery store or chemist, going to cafes or restaurants, attending the cinema, visiting the library, or spending time in local spaces. Participants are encouraged to make their own choices about where they go, how they spend their time, and how they manage their money.
Building Confidence and Independence
We focus on supporting people to build confidence, independence, and choice in their home life. Participants are encouraged to take an active role in daily decisions and routines, with support adjusted to suit their goals and abilities. Many people we support have experienced improvements in their quality of life after moving into a TISS-operated SIL home, including increased independence and a stronger sense of belonging.
Connection and Participation
By supporting regular community involvement, participants can build routines, social connections, and a stronger sense of belonging. Community access is about more than outings — it’s about feeling included and supported in everyday life.
