ABOUT PURE COACHING

At Pure Coaching, we do disability support differently.

We are not a traditional support provider focused on sitting at home with participants.

We help young people build confidence, independence, resilience, social skills, fitness, employment skills and community connections through real world experiences.

Our participants can be found at the gym, on hiking trails, camping trips, fishing adventures, beach workouts, swimming sessions, bowling leagues and community activities.

We call ourselves coaches because we work alongside participants, helping them develop the skills and confidence required to live more independent and meaningful lives.
