NDIS Group & Centre-Based Activities Across Darwin, NT Regions & Melbourne’s South-East
Connect, Learn, and Grow in a Safe, Supportive Space
At Your Life Your Choice Care Services, we believe life is better with connection.
Our Group & Centre-Based Activities give NDIS participants the chance to:
- Build friendships
- Develop life skills
- Enjoy activities that bring joy, purpose, and belonging
These programs are more than just “day activities.” They’re opportunities to explore new interests, connect with others, and feel part of a community in a welcoming, inclusive environment.
A Place Where You’re Always Welcome
Our group programs are designed to feel like a second home, a safe and calm environment full of opportunities to engage without pressure.
Whether you’re creative, active, social, or quiet, there’s something for you to enjoy at your own pace.
We build structured yet flexible programs around your interests and goals. Our support staff are trained, experienced, and passionate about making each session a positive experience for every participant.

Why Participants (and Families) Love This Support
For many participants, group programs are more than just learning skills; they’re a place to feel confident, included, and proud.
Families and carers often notice:
- Increased confidence and self-esteem
- Improved communication and social skills
- Clearer routines and more structured days
- New friendships and connections
- Renewed interest in hobbies, music, and creativity
Even participants who start shy often thrive in the calm, welcoming environment our teams create.
Who Can Join These Programs?
Group & Centre-Based Activities are open to NDIS participants of all ages and abilities.
Whether you attend once a week or multiple times, we can help you establish a routine that works for you.
This support is especially valuable for people who:
- Enjoy socialising but need structured, supported settings
- Are working on communication or emotional regulation
- Want routine and less time alone at home
- Prefer gentle group learning over one-on-one support
- Seek a supported break from home
