Our community participation services

Community participation means different things to different people. Some want to explore new hobbies and meet friends at our vibrant Club Aruma hubs. Others prefer one-on-one support to try new activities in their local area. We work with you to design support that matches your goals, interests and how you like to spend your time.

We put you at the centre of everything we do – keeping you safe, providing effective support, and working together with your support network, this is what we call the Aruma Way.

One-on-one community support

Get out and do the things that matter to you. Stay connected, learn new skills, and have fun. Your Aruma support worker is right there with you, as you reach your goals your way.

Whether it’s going to the gym, catching up with friends, learning to cook, or exploring your local community, we help you build independence and confidence. Our support workers get to know you and what you enjoy, so every outing is designed around your interests.

Club Aruma day programs

Connect with new people, step out of your comfort zone, and explore new possibilities. Our calendar is packed with activities, from creative workshops to sports and social events. Or choose your own adventure and we’ll make it happen.

With hubs across NSW, VIC, and QLD, Club Aruma brings people together in a safe, welcoming space.

Group adventures

Looking for adventure? Our groups connect you with people who want to try new things, build independence, and have fun together. From day trips to concerts to exploring the city, you choose what sounds fun. Our groups are small and supportive, with trained staff who make sure everyone feels included.

Skill building support for everyday life

You set the goals. We help you get there.

Our capacity building supports help you learn everyday skills, build confidence, and work towards greater independence. Our trained support workers work alongside you, celebrating progress and helping you take the next step. For families, it means knowing your loved one is building skills that last.

I am beyond thrilled to share my experience with Aruma. From the moment I stepped through their doors, it was clear that this place is something special. The staff are truly remarkable. They are not only highly skilled and professional but also incredibly warm and nurturing. They have a unique ability to connect with customers, making them feel safe, valued, understood and encourage to reach your goals. What truly sets Aruma apart is their commitment to fostering a supportive and inclusive community. They go above and beyond. It's clear that they are dedicated to making a real difference in the lives of their customers. I highly recommend their services to anyone looking for a place where you will be cherished, nurtured, and inspired. Thank you Aruma, for creating such a wonderful and impactful environment for our community!

Very friendly, caring staff, resulting in enthusiastic customers who are happy to be there for both work skills (either group or 1 on 1) and life skills such as cooking classes, and a Friday social & gaming group. Better value for money & a more structured, methodical approach to preparation for future employment than Breakthru Wallsend!
