Transitioning onto NDIS was confronting and overwhelming until we were referred to Beyond Mentoring SA and were provided with a support worker/mentor. The mentor has become such an important part of our lives with their ongoing support and they have adapted extremely well to the needs of my wife Jo, after being diagnosed with an ABI. Beyond Mentoring SA have been a breath of fresh air for us in such a difficult and complex time in our lives. The skills of their mentors are above and beyond what our expectations were and they continue to exceed them during each visit. Beyond Mentoring SA not only provide support for my wife by maintaining her independence and promoting her wellbeing, but they ensure they are supportive to me which was not expected but very much appreciated and humbling. Our mentor has taken the time to understand and research what Jo’s needs are which ultimately ensures she receives the best possible care. Having such a wonderful, punctual, well-mannered and professional person in our lives has not only proven essential and beneficial, but provided me the ability to continue to work to support my family while having trust that my wife is being well supported when I am not home.
“Beyond Mentoring SA has become a massive part of my support system, helping minimise my Brain injuries impact on my life. They show flexibility during supports, and an ability to adapt when my needs change, demonstrating an understanding on how my brain injury impacts me. They mentor me during supports like, fitness/staying active (when I have capacity to), getting to my appointments on time, shopping, and companionship. They have taken me to places like the beach (for a walk), Hahndorf (strawberry picking), Rundle mall (shopping) and exploring through the Adelaide botanical gardens. Without the support of Beyond Mentoring SA, I would struggle to maintain my current volunteer work, healthy friendships, and would risk social isolation as I wrestle with symptoms like fatigue, mental health, and maintaining a positive outlook on living with a disability. They help me stay safe in the community, especially with my balance issues, and stand out as champions due to their genuine desire to achieve inclusion, and encourage independence.”
“From our first time meeting with Ty, I knew Ty was a genuine and caring person who is passionate about mentoring and supporting individuals in achieving their goals. Beyond Mentoring SA is a unique organisation that believes in matching the right mentor with the right individuals to best support their needs and goals. BMSA's team of mentors go above and beyond in mentoring and supporting David. David has developed new skills, increased independence and social skills. David is enjoying doing things he likes, focusing on health and fitness, playing his favourite sports and having fun. David has formed great bonds with all his mentors and he considers them all as his friends. Before being associated with Ty David did not have any good male role models around his own age in his life but now with BMSA and their ongoing care and mentoring to David we have seen David develop into a caring young man. BMSA also supports David’s family. BMSA are genuinely caring in nature and have holistic approaches that compliments their successes and I highly recommend Beyond Mentoring SA.”

They have also helped me with boring admin tasks that I don’t like to do and have trouble completing on my own.
