Empowering People to Craft Their own Lives
Our primary goal at Peoplecraft is to provide the types of services that are truly helpful to individuals, families and children. Guided by your NDIS goals, we can tailor supports to help you within the context of your life journey. We strive to form and maintain open and honest working relationships with people and welcome feedback on our services
Our Vision
At Peoplecraft we are committed to providing person centred practice, with you in the driver’s seat of your own lives. We aim to work with individuals to ensure quality of NDIS and community services, to help build and maintain capacity. With a focus on skill development training, we are eager to hear from the community, to determine what skills you would like practical support with, to expand your independence and community participation.

Skill Development
As the saying goes, no two people are alike. So why should the way we learn be any different?

At Peoplecraft, we believe that every individual has their own unique learning style. That’s why we offer one-on-one personalised skill development to cater for each person’s individual needs.

Whether you’re a complete beginner or looking to brush up on your existing skills, Peoplecraft will be there to support you every step of the way.

Personalised skill development can be tailored to help participants achieve their NDIS goals and provides participants with the opportunity to learn at their own pace and in a way that suits their individual learning styles.

Our skills development and training team leader, Sue Bourke, is a skilled educator, with many years’ experience and has drawn on this experience to develop programs that can be modified to the individuals specific learning style and paced at a rate that is just right for the participant. Sue also has extensive experience when it comes to disability (including lived experience) and is eager to create a program that is just right for you.

So, what are you waiting for? Get in touch today and start developing the skills you need to succeed!

Support Coordination
At People Craft Supports, we recognise that there’s more to your journey than the NDIS! Not only do our coordinators know the NDIS system and will help you understand your plan and funding, but we will also look past this, at the bigger picture. We will help you to set personal goals (beyond your NDIS goals), to focus on the things that matter to you across all areas of your life and will link you with community, mainstream and other government services.

Long Business Description

Your business has a story - all it needs is the right person to tell it.

That’s why you need a wordsmith. Someone who can step in, craft the exact turns of phrase and put the best words in the right order to smash your business goals out of the park.

Wordsmith By DK was founded for exactly that purpose. My name’s Danielle, I’m an award-winning neurodivergent journalist and communications specialist. I’ve spent more than ten years dealing with the intricacies of finding the right words for the job. Now, I’m sharing that skill with you. Specialising in disability and neurodivergence, I bring an inclusive lens to my work. With experience perfecting communications in corporates, not for profits, tertiary institutions and government, I’ve got the know-how to make you the go-to in your field. Whether you’ve got a press release that needs writing, an audio story to cut and script, a speech to draft for that all-important gig, or social media pages that need filling, I can help. Unsure how to put your business out there? Let me tailor a bespoke communications strategy to support your business goals. By combining my journalistic experience and communications expertise, I can take the stress out of media relations and comms for you - and get you the airtime you need.

But wait, there's more!

I'm also an engaging and confident public speaker. I've had the privilege of sharing my knowledge of media literacy and disability representation and inclusion with classrooms, businesses and community groups around Victoria. If that sounds like something you need, get in touch and let's work something out - while I can't promise you steak knives, you can be sure I'll deliver an evidence-based, curriculum-focused, context-appropriate presentation, rooted in real-life and lived experience that won't put the audience to sleep.
