At Function Lifestyle Day Supports, our programs are built on a therapeutic foundation designed to enhance participants’ psychological, social, and emotional wellbeing. We take a multi-sensory approach, recognising that engaging the senses—through sight, sound, touch, taste, and smell—has a profound impact on the brain functions and overall wellness. Thoughtfully designed sensory experiences foster self-awareness, emotional regulation, and positive social interactions, tailoring calming or stimulating responses to each individual’s needs.

Central to our philosophy is the use of art as therapy, providing participants with a safe and supportive space for self-expression, introspection, and personal growth. Through creative exploration, individuals cultivate self-esteem, confidence, and resilience, fostering both healing and a sense of joy.

Our disability support facilitators receive specialised training in sensory modulation, art as a therapeutic tool, and activity gradation, ensuring each activity is thoughtfully adapted to meet the unique needs and preferences of every participant. By fine-tuning the complexity and intensity of activities, we aim to create an optimal balance that promotes engagement, personal development, and lasting benefits.
