What you notice with My Life teams is that everyone really cares for the people they support, and they definitely have the best interests of that person at the heart of what they do. That not only means people get better quality care, but also that everyone works together to ensure the best outcomes for people.

🏀🏐 GET ACTIVE TUESDAYS! 🏐🏀Our members have been loving our Get Active Tuesday sessions! 🙌💪We mix things up between basketball and netball, giving everyone the opportunity to learn and practise skills and rules from both sports 🏀🏐There’s been plenty of energy, teamwork and lots of fun as we develop skills including passing, shooting, dribbling and moving into space, while learning how to work together as a team.It’s been fantastic to see everyone supporting, encouraging and cheering each other on, building confidence and trying new things along the way. 👏❤️But most importantly, there have been lots of smiles, laughter and a real sense of achievement! 😊We love seeing our members getting active, learning new skills, making choices and working together…….showing just how much can be achieved when we support one another 🌟Well done everyone!
