Tailored Programs For All

At Guru Care, we organise day programs for people living with disabilities in Wollongong, Shellharbour, the Sutherland Shire and all throughout Sydney. Our goal is to provide disabled people with the opportunity to socialise, learn new skills and enjoy themselves in a supportive environment.

More personalised than our group activities, our day programs involve taking individuals or small groups to see movies, go shopping, try cooking classes and more. We know that every disabled person is unique; that’s why we design our day programs with each individual in mind so we are able to offer our full support.

Our disability day programs are funded by the NDIS, including transportation. In the event the NDIS doesn’t cover everything, we’ll inform you well in advance regarding additional costs.

Ready to join us for a fun-filled day out that’s tailored just for you? Contact our team on (02) 4225 7394 to get started! We also offer home support services for the elderly and those with disabilities and are available 24/7 to assist you.
