Support work that is about building relationships, capacity, resilience, confidence and skills
Our Cicada program is support work with soul. We see real people with unique stories and dreams, people who have overcome challenges and have the potential to overcome many more.
We’re on a mission to redefine support work. It’s not just about making lives easier; it’s about nurturing independence, pushing boundaries, and inspiring personal growth. Creating memorable experiences and making the most of the day – not just ticking boxes and doing the fast food circuit.
It’s a journey where you’re encouraged to take a leap into an unknown world, liberated from old stories and ways. At our Cicada program, we hold space for transformation, dedicated to guiding our clients towards a future of confidence and connection to the natural world.
We blend traditional support work with stepping into the wild, where nature becomes your teacher. Wild ecosystems providing the ideal setting to push boundaries and build connections whilst still getting the important day to day logistics sorted.
What do people say?
Our son Daniel has been provided support from Rauì for over 6 months now, during this time Daniel has had notable changes including pushing through some fairly concrete fears, through Raui’s patience and gentle persistence Daniel has reached quite a few milestones. Dan has become more confident in decision making as Dan is non speaking this has certainly provided some challenges during supported times , Raui takes notice if Dan is comfortable with a situation and helps Dan through it and suggests ways forward for example hiking poles for Daniels support during walking hikes.
For me personally Raui has provided an opportunity to trust that Daniel will be well cared for and this provides respite for myself also. There have been many positive changes in our lives since Dan started support with Raui but the standout for me is that Raui always treats Dan as he is relevant and that he matters! This speaks volumes of Raui’s character and has been refreshing after a very long succession of non caring support.
We know whoever has support from Raui will flourish also.
