Over the last three weeks, our Settlement Engagement and Transition Support (SETS) team held a series of makeup sessions for our Arabic-speaking clients!

Throughout the series, participants learned the essentials of makeup application and the importance of proper skincare. Each week featured a new focus:
• Session 1: The basics of simple party makeup.
• Session 2: Different techniques for achieving a full glam look.
• Session 3: The art of bridal makeup.

To celebrate their hard work, every participant walked away with a certificate of participation, a makeup goody bag, and a wealth of new skills. Best of all, the makeup artist agreed to let 3 participants shadow her at her salon to build on their skills!

Walking, tea, BBQ, and... belly dancing?! 💃🍵🍔

Our Aged Care team had an absolute blast with our senior clients on their latest outing to
Central Gardens Nature Reserve in Merrylands! From exploring the greenery and sharing a lovely cup of tea to firing up the BBQ and busting out some dance moves, it was a day full of non-stop joy and laughter.

Happy Moon Festival!

To celebrate the Moon Festival, we brought together a room full of our wonderful aged care clients. It was an afternoon filled with good food, genuine connection, and a warm sense of community.

We are so proud of our Aged Care and NDIS teams for the work they put into making this event a success. From sharing a delicious spread of Chinese food and mooncakes to participating in a prize draw that brought about lots of laughter, the day was truly incredible and all about connection and community.

We were especially touched when one of our clients personally gave our CEO a heartfelt card thanking us for the good work we do, alongside lovely feedback about the quality service they receive from our team. There's no better validation than that. Days like this remind us of the significance of the services we provide.

Thank you to all our clients for celebrating the Moon Festival with us.

Yesterday was a special day at ADSI as Uncle John Dickson joined us to bless our newly refurbished office space. 💛

We’ve called this site home since 1996, and it was lovely to bring the team together to celebrate its transformation — and the beginning of another chapter here.

We’re so happy to have created a beautiful, calm and welcoming space for our clients, community and staff to enjoy for many years to come.

A huge thank you to Constructor Group for the amazing fitout, to Uncle John (Liz N John Dickson) for his time and blessing, and to Vision Xtra Photography Sydney | Ecevit Demir for capturing some beautiful photos so we can remember the occasion.

Here’s to the next ten years in our new digs! ✨
