Join us at DEC Ballarat on Wednesday 29 April!

The Ballarat Community Disability Expo is a free event designed to bring together people with disability, their families, carers, support workers and local providers.

It's a great chance to:

  • Meet local providers and have real conversations about what support can look like
  • Learn more about services available across Ballarat and surrounding areas
  • Connect with others in the local disability community

You'll find a wide range of exhibitors on the day, including allied health and therapy providers, housing and living options, community organisations and support services. It's set up so you can take your time, explore what's out there, and ask questions in a way that feels comfortable.

As a bonus, the first 200 people through the door will receive a free barista-made coffee — so it's worth arriving early!

The InLife team will be there too. We support people with frequent or complex needs across Victoria, including in Ballarat, Bendigo and regional areas. If you'd like to talk through your situation, or just get a feel for how we work, you're very welcome to come and say hello.
