How is Community Access different from just transport? Transport simply gets you from A to B. Community Access provides a support worker who stays with you throughout your outing, providing assistance, companionship, and support with whatever you’re doing.

Can I use Community Access for regular activities like gym or swimming? Absolutely. Many of our clients use Community Access to maintain regular fitness routines, hobbies, and social activities. We can support you at the gym, pool, yoga class, art groups, or any regular activity that helps you achieve your goals.

What if I need help with communication or have complex needs? Our support workers are trained to work with clients who have a range of communication needs, including those using communication devices, Auslan, or visual supports. During our intake process, we match you with a support worker who has the right skills and experience for your specific needs.

Is Community Access covered under my NDIS plan? Yes. Community Access typically falls under Core Supports - Assistance with Social and Community Participation. If you have funding in this category, you can use it for our services. We can help you understand your plan and budget allocation.
