Start with a conversation

You do not need to arrive with a finished plan, know which service you need or have the perfect words.

Tell us a little about what is happening, what you would like to explore and what would make the conversation accessible for you. We will consider whether Belonging Before Barriers is the right fit and help identify a practical next step.

Connection. Understanding. Opportunity.

This fits BBB’s warm, clear and grounded voice, while keeping the invitation practical rather than overly corporate.

Have a question or a project in mind? Send us a quick note, and we’ll figure it out together.

What would you like to explore?

BBB welcomes enquiries from organisations, educators, community groups, potential partners and individuals interested in future community opportunities.

You can select the option that feels closest to your enquiry. If you are unsure, choose I’m not sure yet.

Organisational support enquiries for BUILD, REVIEW or CREATE, including operational foundations, inclusive service experiences and service or program development.
Education and training enquiries for workplaces, service providers, schools and community organisations interested in practical neuroinclusion learning.
Partnership and collaboration enquiries for organisations, advocates and community groups interested in developing a project, resource, event or shared initiative.
Community opportunities for people interested in conversations, future events, resources, Listening Labs or contributing ideas.
Something else: for enquiries that do not fit neatly into one area or when the most useful starting point is not yet clear.

BBB’s existing service pathways cover organisational foundations, neuroinclusion education, inclusive service review and service or program development.

Tell us a little about your enquiry

What happens next?

What happens after you get in touch?

This section will reduce uncertainty around the contact process.

1. We read your enquiry

BBB considers what you have shared, the type of support being requested and whether the enquiry appears to sit within BBB’s role.

2. We respond through your preferred method

Where possible, BBB uses the communication preference selected in the form.

3. We clarify the starting point

The first response may ask for a little more context, suggest an introductory conversation or explain when another type of service may be more appropriate.

4. We agree on what happens next

If BBB appears to be the right fit, the next step may involve confirming the scope, intended outcomes, timeframe and proposed service pathway.

BBB is founder-led, so responses are personally reviewed. We appreciate your patience and will respond as soon as practicable.

Accessibility and communication

Different ways of communicating are welcome

People communicate, process information and participate in different ways.

You are welcome to let BBB know if a particular communication method, format or arrangement would make the initial conversation more accessible.

Where relevant and practicable, this may include:

  • Receiving questions or an agenda in advance

  • Responding in writing

  • Having additional processing time

  • Using a video conversation rather than a phone call

  • Keeping the first conversation shorter

  • Receiving a written summary afterwards

  • Including another person in the conversation

  • Using another agreed participation method

You do not need to disclose a diagnosis or justify why a communication preference would help.
