🌟 What a Fantastic Start to October at Dasha's 🌟

We’ve hit the ground running with a busy and exciting start to the month, packed with fun, learning, and skill building opportunities for our participants.

From creative activities and community engagement to life skills development, social interaction, and hands on experiences, there has been something for everyone to enjoy. Participants have been embracing new challenges, building confidence, developing independence, and most importantly, having a great time along the way!

We are so proud of the enthusiasm, effort, and achievements we see every day across both of Dasha's locations 💙

Here’s a sneak peek at some of the amazing activities and moments we have shared so far. We can’t wait to see what the rest of the month has in store!

☀️ R U OK? Day at MIHS – Dasha’s Place ☀️

Today we enjoyed a wonderful R U OK? Day with participants and staff at MIHS – Dasha’s Place.

R U OK? Day is a reminder that a simple conversation can make a real difference.

💬 Ask R U OK?
👂 Listen without judgement
🤝 Reach out and check in
☀️ Have those important conversations

Sometimes all someone needs is for somebody to notice, ask, and genuinely listen.

Today was about connection, kindness, laughter and reminding each other that we’re never alone and it’s okay to ask for help.

A big thank you to the participants and staff for making today so special 🌻

Let’s keep the conversations going not just today, but every day. 🌻

💙🏉 A goal, a plan and a trip to remember! 🏉💙

One of Adrian’s goals was to have a little getaway without his family, and he made it happen! 🙌

He worked hard and saved his own money for his flights and accommodation, learning some great money-management skills along the way. 💰✈️

And what better reason for a trip than to see his beloved Geelong Cats take on Essendon at GMHBA Stadium! 🐱💙🤍

From saving and planning, to travelling and enjoying the game, it is fantastic to see him building confidence, independence and achieving something that was really important to him.

A very proud moment — and one awesome weekend! 💙🙌

✨ Pamper Night at Dasha's ✨
What a wonderful evening of self-care, relaxation, and connection! 💕 participants loved learning new self care skills and taking time to focus on their wellbeing while enjoying a well deserved pamper session.
From skincare and self care tips to meaningful conversations and plenty of smiles, the night was all about celebrating the importance of looking after ourselves. 🌸
It's amazing to see everyone building confidence, learning healthy self care habits, and enjoying some special time to relax and be pampered.
💖 Because self care isn't a luxury, it's a necessity.
