Celebrating Inclusion with CatholicCare Sydney

Highlighting inclusivity, openness and connection, CatholicCare Sydney celebrated the talents of Disability Services with the Spring Fair Open Day.

This event brought together staff, family members, friends, and community members to celebrate the talents of participants and their work over the last year.

“It’s a great opportunity for our participants to show their families all the work they’ve done over the last year, both personally and in professional development,” said Kelly Turner, director of Disability Services at CatholicCare Sydney.

“Having community members and local providers is a great opportunity to promote the connection and inclusivity that CatholicCare strives for.”

The Spring Fair Open Day featured numerous stalls for attendees, including an animal farm, art stalls, and Club DCI (CatholicCare Sydney’s disability inclusive disco initiative), a favourite for many attendees.
