Home and Away stars will be special guests at the annual Community Lifestyle Support Ability Ball next month, featuring a night of glitz and glamour.
Community Lifestyle Support (CLS) developed the event seven years ago as a way to provide the entire community with an opportunity to come together and celebrate people’s abilities.
“The aim is to provide a genuinely inclusive opportunity for people to enjoy a night of food, dancing and entertainment, while promoting awareness and understanding of the valuable contribution people with disability make to our local community,” coordinator Trevor Sands said.
“The community awareness benefits of such an event are enormously powerful and have far-reaching positive outcomes.
“Negative attitudes, along with misconception and lack of awareness, can present significant barriers to social inclusion.”

“Personally meet and have your photo taken with stars from the popular television show, Home and Away,” he said.
