Self Managed Services — Informal Get Together.

QDN is in the planning stages of holding an informal get-together for people with disabilities who are funded by DSQ for personal care support and choose to manage their own funding. QDN is looking for expressions of interest. The initial meeting will just be an informal discussion which will hopefully lead to a sort of “information pack” for people with disability to access in the future so 'we don't keep reinventing the wheel'.

At this stage, QDN is just looking for expressions of interest from people who already manage their own funding. Please contact QDN if you are interested in participating. For members who do not manage their own funding but may be interested in doing so, please contact QDN if you would be interested in a larger more informational get-together in the future.

Please contact QDN on 1300 363 783. The 1300 number is just the cost of a local call.

Writers' and Storytellers' Circle.

I want to welcome you all to the newly formed writer's circle and I would like to extend a hand out to others who would like to join us, but if you are working, well then you can still join us on computer. There is no fee to join, but you must have a love for writing.

To find out more call Sarah at QDN on 1300 363 783.

QDN Quality Project.

Hello friends, members and people with a disability!

I have been contracted by QDN (Queenslanders with Disability Network) to identify people with a disability who receive a (state-funded) disability service, to take part in a research project (follow this link to a PDF file listing the details) about their services and the Quality system. One method is through a questionnaire that takes about 20 minutes to complete.

I am also traveling around Queensland to speak with people with a disability; contact me to see when or if I will be in your area.

Here is an opportunity for people with disabilities to be involved and have more control over the supports they receive, therefore ensuring quality services.

Please take a look at the attached flyer and get in touch with me if you are interested in a follow-up phone call or visit.

The best way to contact me at present is by emailing me or by leaving a message with QDN on 1300 363 783. I will endeavour to get back to you as soon as I can.

Please note that this project is directly targeting people with a disability; if you are a parent of a person with a disability receiving a service, please contact Anita Speed at CRU on 38701022.

If you know of someone who meets the criteria for this project please pass this on.

When you respond to this email, please type “Quality” and your location in the subject line.

I look forward to hearing from you!

Oh and by the way, for every qualifying person who takes part in the questionnaire, I offer you a $20 because I value your time, effort and comments!

Cheers

Louise Lowe

Quality Project Worker; Queenslanders with Disability Network
