Worklink WA

From 1st of March, our NDIS services are operating under the ATC Work Smart brand.

This brings our NDIS employability and life skills programs under one clear organisation across the region.

We’re sharpening our programs with a stronger focus on practical employability and everyday life skills. The work stays practical, building skills, growing confidence and supporting greater independence over time.

For participants and families, the same team is here. Programs are now clearer in purpose and sit within a stronger organisation.

This gives our work one consistent identity and reflects the direction we’re taking as a service.

Curious about our NDIS programs? Get in touch and find out how we can support you.

What a day at the Albany Community Disability Expo !!!

23 stallholders.
178 attendees.
A room full of conversations about possibility.

We were proud to represent Worklink WA and share what we’re building through our NDIS Hub here in Albany.

Through employability skills training, 1-on-1 mentoring and structured group programs, our participants are:

• building confidence
• learning practical, hands-on skills
• strengthening communication and workplace behaviours
• developing routines that support independence
• connecting with community in meaningful ways

Thank you to everyone who stopped by our stall, shared your story and asked thoughtful questions.

And thank you to the organisers and fellow stallholders who continue to strengthen our local disability community.

Albany shows up for its people.

We’re proud to be part of it.

Did you know that Worklink WA also runs the Albany & Esperance Jobs and Skills Centres?

The Jobs and Skills Centre offers free, practical support for people across the Great Southern who are figuring out their next step with work or training.

We support people with:

We work with individuals, students, employers and community organisations across the Great Southern. This includes on-the-ground services in Albany and Esperance, regular outreach to Katanning, Mount Barker and Denmark and support for people right across the region from Walpole to Ravensthorpe to Bremer Bay.

It is with great sadness that the staff and participants at Worklink say goodbye to Timothy Vokins, who passed away on 1 January 2026.

Timothy brought energy into every space he walked into.
The music was always on. The laughs were never far away.
He had a way of lifting the room and looking out for the people around him.

Over his two and a half years with the Worklink NDIS family, Timothy kept us all on our toes. Affectionately known as “the Foreman”, he made sure things were done properly, with humour, confidence and plenty of character.

He was deeply loved by all the staff and participants and his presence is already missed more than words can say.

Our thoughts are with his wife Lisa, his daughter Ashiyah and all who loved him.

Thank you, Timothy, for the joy, the energy, the laughter and the memories.

You will always be part of our Worklink family.

🎄 Merry Christmas from all of us at Worklink WA 🎄

This year has been shaped by people.
People finding their feet
People building confidence in small, everyday ways
People showing up with patience, care and persistence

To our participants and families, thank you for trusting us with your time and your journeys 💛
To our team, thank you for the quiet work that often goes unseen but matters deeply 👏

We hope the Christmas period brings rest, connection and happy times 🎁✨

🎄 Merry Christmas 🎄

Confidence isn’t built overnight.
It builds through doing.

At Worklink, participants spend their days:

• building and creating in our workshop
• heading out around town to practice real world skills
• learning socially through cafés, shops and community spaces
• choosing activities based on what interests them !!

Support is there when needed.
Choice comes first.
Confidence follows action.

If you’re looking for a place to meet people, try new things and build skills in a practical way, let’s talk.

Message us to talk through your options.
