NDIS Service

Community Participation

One-to-one support to explore your community, pursue your interests and build friendships that last - at a pace that feels right for you.

Get out there. Connect. Belong.

Feeling part of your community is good for your wellbeing, your confidence and your future. Our community participation support is built around what excites you, whether that is a weekly footy game, a cooking class, a trip to the library or finally trying that café everyone talks about.

Your support worker does not just come along for the ride. They help you plan, travel, communicate and gradually take on more yourself, so that over time you rely less on support and more on your own growing network.

FAQs

Common questions about community participation

Do I have to pay for activity costs?

Your NDIS plan funds the support worker's time. Entry fees, tickets, meals and similar everyday costs are usually paid by the participant, just as they would be for anyone else.

Can my support worker drive me to activities?

Yes. Many of our workers can transport you in an insured vehicle. Kilometres are claimed in line with the NDIS Pricing Arrangements, and we will always explain costs upfront.

Can community participation be one-to-one?

Yes. Most community participation is one-to-one. If you enjoy being with others, we also offer small group programs.
