Building Everyday Abilities, One Step at a Time

At Connectors Wellbeing, our skills development and training NDIS services empower adults to gain independence, confidence, and real-life capabilities. Whether you’re learning to plan meals, manage money, or use public transport, our life skill development programs support you to flourish your way, at your pace.

What is Development in Life Skills?

Development in life skills refers to NDIS-funded, capacity-building supports designed to strengthen practical abilities needed for daily living. This includes everything from home management and communication to community access and personal safety. Our goal is to provide hands-on training through real-life activities, boosting your independence and self-belief. These supports are tailored to your unique needs and funded under your NDIS plan’s skills development and training category.

Why These Tasks Matter for Participants

Building strong life skills transforms how people interact with their world. Here’s why our approach matters:

Everyday Confidence

From cooking a meal to organising your day, mastering small tasks builds self-esteem and pride.

Greater Independence

The ability to care for yourself and manage tasks means less reliance on others—and more freedom.

Practical Skills for Daily Life

Our skills development includes real-life tasks like budgeting, shopping, and transport—tools that matter.

Stronger Community Connection

Knowing how to leave the house, talk with others, and join activities boosts social engagement.

Our life skill development programs align with your NDIS plan objectives, helping you achieve capacity-building targets.
