Plan Your Summer Holiday

  • 23-December-2020

After many months of lockdown, summer is finally here. With restrictions easing, there’s no better way to celebrate than to start organising your next getaway.

It’s natural to feel a little nervous about socialising again, especially when we’ve had to spend most of the year at home. However, you can rest assured that as experts in accessible travel, Leisure Options have all the experience and are here to help you at every step of the way in planning your holiday.

Did you know?

Leisure Options was recently featured in an article with tips for using accessible travel providers. You can read the article to learn more tips for new and experienced travellers.

Our Accreditations

As a nationally accredited travel agency and NDIS service provider, you can feel reassured in our many years of experience in offering supported holidays and travel for people with disabilities.

Our business’ commitment has also been recognised with multiple awards. Our supported travel packages are tailored for all your needs, and come with a unique Leisure Options Holiday Guarantee, giving you peace of mind.

Accessible travel options

With accessible travel, there are many options depending on your preference and needs. You can choose to travel individually  or in a small group, local, interstate or international, meet us along the way or even at the destination

The right level of support

At Leisure Options, we can organise a wide range of holidays for people with different skills, abilities and interests. To help you choose the most appropriate supported holiday, we have designed Holiday Categories and Holiday Ratios.

Depending on your capability and needs, you can choose the most suitable holiday category. Holiday Ratios indicate the number of staff members on a holiday for each traveller. This ensures you have the right amount of support needed while travelling.

You can refer to our Holiday Categories & Ratios page for more information. When you’ve determined the most suitable Holiday Category according to your needs, you can easily start planning your holiday, knowing you’ll have the right amount of support.

The right level of support

Start planning your holiday

Our Holiday Planner makes it easy for you to search for your ideal getaway. Simply choose where you want to go, when you want to go, and the type of holiday you want. You can also select the appropriate Holiday Category according to your needs.

Respite care options

At Leisure Options, we believe that a great respite programme offers more than just rest. Respite supports people with disabilities and their carers by giving participants time away from their usual living environment, while giving carers a short break from their caring responsibilities.

Our respite property at Anglesea is fully equipped with amenities, and our team can prepare daily activity plans that meet your needs and interests. Our tour leaders can tailor a mix of activities to suit each individual. Find out more about our Respite Care.

We are an NDIS service provider

We are a nationally registered National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) service provider.

The NDIS will provide funding for the staff support you require so you can enjoy a safe and fun-filled travel experience. The amount that NDIS covers depends on your support requirements and the categories you have in your plan.

Your NDIS plan can also include respite care, as time away is a powerful tool in strengthening your independence, life skills, and community access experiences. Learn more about using NDIS funding for a holiday.
