  • Come up with new ideas
  • Share your knowledge of local resources

Find out more about the person and their community

  • Learn about the things they like (and dislike!)
  • Get to know their support team
  • Find out about the persons, community and things they might want to explore

Share their interests and skills

  • Contribute to planning or organising
