Plan and achieve personal goals
Access education, volunteering or employment opportunities

Take part in social activities, hobbies and community events
Manage household responsibilities such as budgeting, shopping and meal planning
Maintain positive routines and wellbeing strategies
Build and maintain relationships with friends, family and their local community
