Afford Getaways offer supported travel options for our clients to explore Australia and some of the world’s top destinations. Jet-setter Linda Alliband, from Ashfield Day Program was the first client to go on an Afford Getaways in 2020! Linda is an avid Afford Getaways traveller who has been waiting for the opportunity to travel and experience some of Australia’s greatest scenic destinations. Even though she lives in Sydney, she has not had the opportunity to explore our iconic scenic Blue Mountains, until Afford Getaways made her dream a reality.
