Julie, Kate and Sarah* share a lovely home in Darwin’s northern suburbs. Supported by a dedicated team of experienced and skilled Independent Living Coaches, the women love to try new things and get involved in community activities.
Tie-dying was identified as an at-home activity everyone could take a role in. Support staff facilitated the purchase of materials and printed the step-by-step instructions. They also broke each task down into easy-to-understand micro-steps to ensure everyone could fully participate in the activity.
At the end of the project, a beautiful range of colourful t-shirts attracted a lot of attention, with several requests from friends and family to purchase a t-shirt. Plans for additional tie-dying sessions are now underway.
