An exciting opportunity exists for Ability Linkers to join our team in Penrith on a full time basis for a fixed term period until June 2020.

Linkers will provide a locally based first point of contact designed to improve access and engagement in local community and mainstream services to facilitate social and economic inclusion of people with disability. Linkers support people with disability aged 7 – 64 to find ways to be a part of their local community, set goals and plan for their future, build confidence to achieve their dreams and develop existing support networks and create new networks.
