Our Programs

At Lara’s Clubhouse, our programs are designed to build confidence, independence, and meaningful social connections, all within a real-world café and community setting. We focus on practical life skills, communication, and emotional wellbeing, delivered in a way that feels natural, engaging, and enjoyable.

Social & Community Connection

Participants build genuine friendships through shared experiences in a welcoming, café-style environment.
  • Activities include:
  • Social games and shared interests
  • Conversation-building in real-life settings
  • Building confidence in public spaces

Café Skills & Daily Living

Our café space creates the perfect environment to develop real-world skills in a natural and supportive way.
  • Participants can be involved in:
  • Preparing simple food and drinks
  • Taking orders and customer interaction
  • Handling money and basic transactions
  • Cleaning, organisation, and routine tasks

These everyday experiences help build independence and confidence that carry into daily life.

  • Balance structure with flexibility

A Real-World Approach

Lara’s Clubhouse is not a traditional day program.
  • It’s a space where participants can:
  • Learn naturally through real-life experiences
  • Feel part of a community
  • Build skills that truly translate outside the centre
