💛 Neurodivergent Dating – A Better Way to Meet 💛
Hosted by CARA PR | In partnership with The Robertson Hotel
📍 The Robertson Hotel, Southern Highlands
🗓️ Thursday 21st August | ⏰ Starting at 10am
Connection should never be out of reach.
This event is ideal for neurodivergent adults who benefit from:
Higher levels of structure and predictability
Extra support with transitions or social interactions
Smaller group sizes and a slower-paced environment
Assistance with communication (volunteers and visual aids provided)
If you (or someone you support) appreciate more guidance, routine, and low-pressure spaces, this is the perfect session to join. We’ll have volunteers available to assist with navigating the space, and activities will include additional prompts and options to support different communication styles.
✨ Think of this as a warm, gently held space designed for those who thrive with more support in social environments.
Whether you are accompanied by a carer, support worker, or attending with the help of your family, this event welcomes all levels of communication, mobility, and interaction styles. Our goal is simple: to create a joyful and accessible experience where everyone feels seen, supported, and celebrated.
🌈 What’s included:
🧸 Gentle, sensory-friendly stations like Build-a-Bear and soft crafts
🧁 Cupcake decorating for a creative (and tasty!) moment
🎨 Painting on canvas – expressive, hands-on, no pressure
🎯 Outdoor games (croquet, Connect 4, corn hole) tailored to all abilities
🔥 Quiet comfort zones for those who need a break from stimulation
🎮 Nintendo Switch station + board games for shared play
🦄 Meet our special guest – the beloved Piccolo Pony
🍽️ Light snacks + non-alcoholic drinks provided
🧠 Friendly facilitators and trained volunteers on hand throughout
💛 Stay for one session or all three – flexible entry and exit welcome
This event is proudly led by local advocate Erin Reedie, a neurodivergent writer, actor and support worker who has experienced firsthand how difficult traditional dating spaces can be — and how powerful it is when we create spaces that truly fit our community’s needs.
Whether you’re looking to make a friend, share a laugh, or open your heart to love — this event is a safe, supported, and uplifting space to be exactly who you are.
🎟️ Bookings essential. Limited spaces to ensure quality support and connection.
Come as you are. Bring your person (or your people).
And let love – in all its forms – feel a little more possible 💛
