Our team will work with you to identify supports that help you achieve your goals. You’ll be partnered with a trained Disability Support Worker who has experience that aligns with your goals, needs and interests.

"Seeing him smile, doing something that he loves makes it all worth it. He’s opened up 100% and it’s given him a goal he wants to achieve."Candice, Matt’s Support Worker.
Matt’s passion is coffee and he has a dream of opening his own café. So, when Matt’s support team began working with him, they found ways to get him closer to living his dream. With our daily living supports, Matt developed his barista skills and completed some local training. Then, after a coffee machine was generously donated to the local community centre, Matt began operating his own coffee shop one morning a week! On Fridays, he serves coffee to Life Without Barriers staff, clients and the general public, while continuing to boost his skills in other ways.
