Getaways & Short Stays
Overnight short stays, camps and getaways — from weekends in Byron Bay to city adventures and cruises. Time away from home that builds confidence and creates lasting memories, with a familiar squad and support around the clock.
More than a holiday
A getaway is one of the biggest confidence boosts there is. Packing a bag, trying new things, navigating somewhere new — all with familiar faces close by and support whenever it's needed.
Every trip is carefully planned around the group, with experienced staff there 24/7. Families get peace of mind, and Mates come home with new skills, new stories and a real sense of independence.
Most travel crews first meet at our weekly group activities — familiar faces long before the bags are packed.

Every trip starts from the Gold Coast, with pick-ups from Upper Coomera down to Tweed Heads — and destinations from Byron Bay weekends to city adventures.
