Our Role
We are a volunteer support based organisation that translates complex service systems to a wide variety of people, promoting self-advocacy to access social support systems and building individual capability, particularly around digital literacy.
We recognise a life cycle approach and that some people move in and out of states of vulnerability.
We seek to build capacity and resilience for and in people to address their own challenges and needs as well as advocating effectively for services at a systemic and individual level.

Our Future will be enriched by creating and developing partnerships and collaborations with other like-minded organisations
Our Future builds on our values and commitment to be recognised as offering inclusive services and helping those most vulnerable
