Feeling connected to others is one of the most important parts of living a happy, healthy life — and that’s exactly what Tribe Social Belonging is all about. This Redcliffe-based social enterprise is on a mission to bring people together, create opportunities for connection, and help individuals who may be feeling lonely or isolated rediscover their sense of belonging.
At its heart, Tribe believes that life is who you know, and they’ve built a thriving community around that idea. Whether through weekly social gatherings, NDIS support, or the welcoming atmosphere of the Tribe Clubhouse, this is a place where everyone is encouraged to come as they are and be part of something bigger.
Building Opportunity Through Connection
Tribe Social Belonging started in early 2018 with one simple goal — to create opportunity through community. Over the years, Tribe has become a lifeline for many people who might otherwise struggle to engage socially. More than 15,000 people have attended Tribe events, with many saying the experience has genuinely changed their lives.
At its core, Tribe creates regular, safe, and welcoming events for people to attend. These events help attendees re-engage with others, form new friendships, and rediscover the joy of being part of a community. From coffee catch-ups and BBQs to live music nights and road trips, there’s something for everyone — and everyone is welcome.
There’s no hidden agenda or complicated structure, just an open invitation to join in, meet people, and have a good time.
NDIS Support in a Community Setting
While Tribe didn’t begin as an NDIS-focused organisation, it quickly became clear that many of its attendees were NDIS participants. Many people with psychosocial disabilities were already coming along to Tribe events with their support workers — so Tribe decided to make it official and create an NDIS support network that aligned perfectly with their community-first philosophy.
Tribe now offers a range of NDIS support services, including:
- Psychosocial support in both one-on-one and group settings
- Assistance with community access, social and recreational activities
- Support for everyday outings such as shopping, appointments, or simply getting out of the house
What sets Tribe apart is its hands-on, energetic approach. Their support workers aren’t just there to sit by and watch — they’re active participants, helping clients engage fully in social life. Whether it’s hitting the road for a day trip, heading out for a coffee, or attending a Tribe event, the goal is to encourage confidence, connection, and joy.
Tribe Clubhouse – A Café with a Purpose
Located in the heart of Redcliffe, Tribe Clubhouse is more than just a café — it’s a community hub with a purpose. During the day, it’s a warm and welcoming space where you can grab a coffee, enjoy a light meal, and connect with others. By night, it transforms into a lively venue with live music, karaoke, and other events every Friday and Saturday.
The Clubhouse is also available for private hire — perfect for parties, meetings, or work functions. But more than that, it serves as the home base for Tribe Social Belonging, a registered charity dedicated to helping people find connection.
By simply visiting, grabbing a coffee, or coming along to an event, locals are supporting a cause that directly benefits the Redcliffe community.
Everyone Needs a Tribe
Tribe is open to everyone — and their message is simple: everyone needs a Tribe. Whether you’re a support worker, an NDIS participant, or someone just looking for new connections, you’ll find a friendly face and a place to belong.
Tribe events are free to attend, and the organisation is self-funded through its NDIS support work and community café. If you’d like to support their mission, the best way is to simply show up, grab a drink, enjoy a night out, and strike up a conversation. You never know — your friendly hello might just make someone’s day.
Tribe also welcomes volunteers and donations. As a registered charity, all donations are tax deductible and go directly towards helping more people find their place in the community.
