Peer Support, I’ve been using them for a year and a half now.

What was your experience with Disability Macarthur?

It’s always fun. They are always helpful. They know how to help the other kids and helping them to get self confidence and they help to understand the kid’s need.

How has the service made an impact on you?

They mainly helped me with self confidence and independence and it’s such a fun place to go to. I feel that my confidence has increased. They mainly ask me, are you okay with your own money and I say yes, and I find help at times when I need help.
