The contribution we make to the community

Since 1961 DARE Industries have provided products and services (such as grounds maintenance, woodwork and packing and assembly) to customers in the community.

DARE provides meaningful employment for 65 people with a disability in the community who would otherwise not be able to work.

At DARE, supported employees improve their social skills and as a result are able to interact with the community in their day-to-day lives leading to a more inclusive community.

DARE also gives back to the community by frequently volunteering at community events such as foundation day and Anzac day.

How supported employees and their families benefit

DARE provides meaningful employment for people with a disability who would otherwise not be able to work.

Not only does it provide the supported employees with more money in the bank, but it also improves their self-esteem as they are contributing to society.

Supported employees experience better health and well being, improve their skills and expand their social networks.

DARE has had a number of apprentices who have gone on to join the open work force.

Family members of DARE supported employees know that they are well looked after, building new skills, developing a social network and becoming more independent.
