  • Activities that are not only fun: but are structured to support personal growth, social connection, and a real sense of achievement.
  • Cahoots is a registered provider under the National Disability Insurance Agency (NDIS) so our programs are eligible for NDIS funding, making them more accessible for families.

Summer programs like this do far more than simply fill a holiday slot, they provide opportunities for independence, growth, and connection. Through structured activities designed with the right supports in place, individuals with disability can build confidence, develop social skills, and experience a genuine sense of achievement.

These programs also foster a strong sense of community, giving participants the chance to make friends, be part of a team, and try exciting new things in a safe, supportive environment.

For families, there’s peace of mind in knowing that each experience is professionally run, tailored to individual needs, and made more accessible through NDIS eligibility. At the same time, these programs offer valuable volunteering and learning opportunities for young people and students, allowing them to gain real-world experience, strengthen their resumes, and contribute to something truly meaningful.

If you’re in Western Australia and looking for a summer program that offers more than just basic care, that instead focuses on adventure, inclusion, growth, and fun, Cahoots is the go-to.

Spots are limited, so if this sounds like the right fit for your loved one, register sooner rather than later. And if you’re keen on helping out as a volunteer or completing a student placement, you’ll get to experience the adventures too.
