Companionship & Social Support for People With Disability

Having someone to talk with, share an interest or accompany you somewhere familiar can be a welcome part of your week. We Care Community Support Services provides disability companionship support across Brisbane, the Gold Coast and the Sunshine Coast. We take time to learn what you enjoy, how you prefer to communicate and what makes you comfortable. Whether you prefer conversation at home or a quiet outing, we discuss support that respects your choices and personal boundaries.

Company That Makes Room for Your Interests

You might enjoy a board game, talking about sport or visiting a favourite café. You may prefer someone who listens without expecting you to keep a conversation going. Our approach to one-to-one social support starts with these preferences. Depending on your needs and agreed arrangements, companionship can include:

  • Conversation and listening: Time to talk about your day, interests and experiences.

  • Shared activities: Enjoying music, games, reading or hobbies together.

  • Company at home: Spending time together in familiar surroundings.

  • Social outings: Accompaniment to suitable local places you choose.

  • Staying connected: Assistance making a call or arranging contact with people you want to keep in touch with.

You decide what to share and how you want to spend your time. There is no expectation to join a group or fill every visit with activities. Our companionship service provides everyday social support and reassurance. It does not replace counselling or other professional mental health services.

Eligible disability-related social support may be funded when it qualifies as an NDIS support and is consistent with your plan. General companionship is not automatically covered simply because you have NDIS funding. Confirm the proposed service and charges with your NDIS contact or plan manager before booking.
