Life skills in Footscray
Life skills support is about learning to do more yourself, at your own pace. Footscray is a good place to practise: trains, trams and buses all meet at the station and the market is across the road. You might work on:
- Planning a trip and catching the train, tram or bus on your own
- Shopping for the week at Footscray Market and cooking what you bought
- Working out a budget and sticking to it
- Keeping on top of appointments, mail and bills
We break each goal into small steps and practise them where you'll use them and keep notes on your progress that you can use at plan review. Read more about life skills and daily living skills support.
A worker who suits you
Tell us what matters to you in a worker, such as gender, culture and interests. We'll match with that in mind. We'll be honest about who's available before supports start.
We aim for the same workers each week. If you'd rather have hands-on help at home than learn a skill, that's personal care and daily living support. You can have both.
