Community Support

NDIS community participation and social support in Wagga Wagga, helping you stay active, connected and involved in your local community.

 

Step Out, Connect, and Thrive in Your Neighborhood

Being part of your community can make a big difference to your independence, confidence and wellbeing.

AfterHour Nursing Services provides community participation support for NDIS participants across Wagga Wagga and the Riverina.

Whether you want to attend local activities, go shopping, develop a new hobby, visit friends, attend appointments or simply get out and explore Wagga Wagga, our support workers can help you participate safely and confidently.

The Process

Community support should be based around the things you actually enjoy doing. We start by getting to know you, your interests and your goals.

Discovering Your Interests

We talk about the activities you enjoy, places you'd like to visit and any new skills or experiences you'd like to explore.

Building Your Social Roadmap

Together, we identify suitable activities, events and opportunities around Wagga Wagga and develop a plan that supports your NDIS goals.

Meeting Your Support Worker

We aim to match you with a support worker who understands your interests, personality and the type of community activities you'd like to participate in.

Engaging with Confidence

Your support worker can accompany you into the community, helping you develop confidence, practise new skills and participate in activities at your own pace.

How We Do Community Support Differently

Community participation is about more than simply getting from one place to another. Our aim is to help you become more confident, connected and independent.

Authentic Hobby Matching

We don’t believe in random pairings. If you love video games, gardening, or local history, we match you with a worker who shares that exact interest so your outings feel like hanging out with a friend.

Our support is designed to build your autonomy. We work alongside you to learn public transit routes, manage public interactions, and confidently initiate friendships over time.

We take care of all the behind-the-scenes details—confirming venue accessibility, arranging safe transport, and managing schedules so you can focus entirely on having fun.
