About the Come As You Are Social Group

Hosted by the Office of the PVC Equity, Diversity and Inclusion, this monthly social support network is designed for Murdoch community members with lived experiences of disability, neurodivergence, and/or chronic illness.

Each month in the final week, we’ll alternate between morning and afternoon teas at Sir Walter’s. Events will include light refreshments, a soft speaker, and a small kinaesthetic activity—something tactile and creative to keep your hands busy while you relax and chat.

By rotating event times, we aim to create inclusive spaces for all energy levels and schedules.
