Our Carers Queensland Local Area Coordinators continue to support local organisations to make practical changes to ensure people with disability have the opportunity to meet like-minded people in our community, participate in social activities, and build skills and experience. The community garden in Yarrabilba in the Logan region is managed by a dedicated team of volunteers, including today's guests, both of whom live with this ability and hold positions of responsibility on the gardens management committee.
First up in this episode, I chat with 27 year old Talecia from Yarrabilba, who lives with functional neurological disorder. Through her role as treasurer and garden manager, Talecia and her team have created a highly accessible garden, providing a wide range of community benefits, including produce that stems from their open garden policy.
