Get Started Disability Support Program
About
When Mandy first came home from rehab, she didn't know anyone living in a wheelchair. With three young kids, she simply wanted to take them to the movies by train, but unfortunately she had no idea how to get there or who to ask for advice.
An idea was sparked and in 2017, Mandy wrote and trialed a Disability Support Program in Mitchell Shire. The six-week program covering every aspect of living with a disability and was a great success. Now she is registering Get Started Disability Support Australia a charity and aiming to spread the idea across Australia.
Mission
