About Me Plus More

What is Me Plus More?

Me Plus More is Australia’s first online membership platform designed specifically for people with intellectual disability. Members access Easy Read resources, practical tools, engaging videos and a supportive community to build confidence, strengthen everyday skills and work towards greater independence at their own pace.

Me Plus More is designed specifically for people with intellectual disability who want to build confidence, strengthen everyday skills and work towards greater independence. Families, support workers and disability service providers can also use the platform to support participants throughout their journey.

Me Plus More was founded by Tara Shekede, who has more than 15 years’ experience working alongside people with intellectual disability, their families and disability service providers. After seeing the lack of accessible capacity building available, Tara created Me Plus More to give people practical, Easy Read tools that build confidence, independence and real-life skills.

Me Plus More is built specifically for people with intellectual disability, not adapted from mainstream programs. Every topic includes Easy Read resources, short videos and practical tools that make capacity building accessible, engaging and easy to follow. Members can work at their own pace while being supported by a welcoming online community.
