Lachlan
Since joining Distinctive Options Bendigo in 2022 Lachlan has met some exceptional goals.
One of his achievements is his confidence and willingness to engage in social settings and activities he previously would not have engaged in.
With the assistance of support worker Nick, Lachlan now mows the lawns at home and at the Long Gully community garden.
Our staff have taken to time to understand Lachlan and his needs. While this process can take time, It has produced great benefits for Lachlan as he enjoys participating in individual and community based activities with his support worker Nick.
