About This Service
Group & Centre-Based Activities
Our group programs run small — typically four to six participants — so every person in the room is genuinely involved rather than just present. Sessions cover creative arts, music, fitness and wellbeing, life skills, and community outings. Programs are structured but relaxed, with clear goals and real social connection built in. If you are not sure whether a particular program suits you, come along and try a session first. There is no lock-in commitment.

FAQ
Common questions about group activities.
How are group activities funded under the NDIS?+
Group activities are funded under Core Supports — Assistance with Social and Community Participation. Because the cost is shared across participants, the hourly rate is typically lower than individual support. Your NDIS plan needs to include funding in this category.
How many participants are in your groups?+
Our groups are small — usually four to six participants per session. We keep ratios low so support workers can give everyone proper attention and participants can genuinely engage rather than just being in the room.
Can I attend a trial session before committing?+
Yes. We encourage you to come along and see whether the group and the people in it are a good fit for you. You are not committing to anything by attending a trial session — if it does not feel right, we will help you find something that does.
How do I find out which programs are running near me?+
Contact us on 0426 710 210 or email info@hermitagecare.com.au and we will tell you what is currently available, where sessions are held, and which programs might suit your interests and goals.
