What an incredible day on the green! 🏌️⛳

Kanda was honoured to be a Gold Sponsor at the Kismet Community Annual Charity Golf Day, and it was everything we hoped it would be and more.

A huge thank you to Kismet Community for the opportunity and for putting on such a brilliant event. This is exactly the kind of community spirit that makes what we do at Kanda so meaningful.

Everything you need to know about Assistance with Daily Life (ADL), answered.

For many Australians living with disability, the biggest barrier to accessing support is not availability, it's knowing where to start.

Assistance with Daily Life is one of the most widely used NDIS Core Supports, yet it's still one of the most misunderstood. At Kanda, we want to change that.

ADL provides one-to-one, person-centred support with the everyday tasks that matter: personal care, household management, daily routine, and getting to appointments. It's tailored to the individual, available in the home and in the community.

Swipe through to get answers to the questions we hear most.
Get in touch today and let's work out the right support plan for you.

Every person living with a disability has different needs and not all NDIS funding works the same way.

Your NDIS plan may be funded with 3 different support types: Core, Capacity Building, and Capital Supports.

𝟏. 𝐂𝐨𝐫𝐞 𝐒𝐮𝐩𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐬 𝐛𝐮𝐝𝐠𝐞𝐭
This is your most flexible budget, and includes four categories, namely: Consumables, Daily Activities, Assistance with Social and Community Participation, Transport

Tip: Your core supports funds can be used across categories, unless they’re set aside for specific items like transport, SDA, in-kind supports, or stated items. Always check your NDIS plan.

𝟐. 𝐂𝐚𝐩𝐚𝐜𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐁𝐮𝐢𝐥𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐛𝐮𝐝𝐠𝐞𝐭
This helps participants develop skills, independence, and confidence over time, and is allocated across eight support sub-categories.

Tip: Support Coordination is part of this budget type.

𝟑. 𝐂𝐚𝐩𝐢𝐭𝐚𝐥 𝐒𝐮𝐩𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭 𝐛𝐮𝐝𝐠𝐞𝐭
Capital Supports are used for assistive technology and home modifications that support safety, mobility, and independence.

Understanding how each budget works can help you get the most out of your plan and avoid confusion when accessing supports.

Sometimes, care goes beyond the expected, and this is one of those moments. 💛

As one of our new clients prepares to leave the hospital, our SA team came together last week, to ensure their next chapter would begin with comfort, dignity, and a true sense of home. Working late into the night, the team poured their hearts into every detail: assembling furniture, placing every piece with care, and turning a house into a warm, welcoming space.

It felt like a little Easter miracle, a fresh start made possible by compassion, teamwork, and a genuine commitment to care.

A heartfelt thank you to our incredible SA team for going above and beyond. Your dedication and kindness make moments like this possible, and we couldn’t be prouder. 🌼
