A Year On
Care, Connection And Continuity

More than a year after floods forced selectability into a temporary location, the Ingham team has remained focused on delivering high quality care and keeping the community connected.

While flood damage meant closure of original hub location, services continued with minimal disruption, keeping recipients connected through individual supports and group programs.

Julie Ross, Regional Coordinator for Ingham, said maintaining connection over the last 12 months was an important focus for the team.

“Following the floods, it was important for us to make sure people still had somewhere to go where they felt safe and supported,” Julie said.

“Connection plays a vital role in recovery, especially during times of uncertainty.

“Having a safe space to gather, share experiences and stay engaged with others can make a significant difference to people’s wellbeing.”

Today, selectability’s Clubhouse program continues to provide opportunities for people to take part in social activities, build friendships and develop confidence through shared experiences.

The local team delivers more than 10 different activities each week, from cooking sessions and craft groups to social outings and community engagement.

“Our programs give recipients the chance to stay connected with others, learn new skills and continue building their confidence,” said Julie.

This support creates opportunities for people to stay engaged with their community, maintain routine and continue working toward their personal goals.

Selectability currently operates at the Canegrowers Building, 11–13 Lannercost Street, while repairs continue on the original hub.

The team welcomes anyone interested in learning more about the Clubhouse program or available supports to drop in, meet the team and see how connection and community continue to play an important role in wellbeing across the region.
