🏠 Home is more than just a place

It’s where you feel safe, supported, and free to be yourself. It’s where you can enjoy what you love, explore new hobbies, create meaningful memories, and truly relax in comfort.

At Brighter Access, we understand how important this is. That’s why we take great care in matching the right Participants when filling our Supported Independent Living (SIL) vacancies.

We believe that everyone should have a say in who they live with. Whether it’s shared hobbies, similar age, or simply enjoying a good conversation, it’s the little things that turn a house into a home.

If you’re an NDIS Participant searching for the right place to call home, we’d love to support you in finding the perfect fit. Reach out to us today.

✨ SHOWING OUR APPRECIATION

Our Port Macquarie team held an appreciation barbecue for our participants, staff and families last week at Settlement Point Reserve. It was incredible to see everyone come together sharing laughs and meaningful conversations.

Coinciding with Supported Independent Living (SIL) Participant Cheryl's birthday, everyone joined together in singing her a very cheerful happy birthday as she cut her cake.

We are so lucky to support amazing people, and their families. If you are looking for a new NDIS registered support provider on the Mid North Coast, reach out to us today!

✨ BOB’S FIRST POWER WHEELCHAIR!

Our Port Macquarie team were thrilled to support SIL Participant Robert through the process of being assessed and fitted for his brand-new wheelchair in December.

The incredible team at On Purpose Therapy completed a comprehensive assessment and recommended a Permobil M3 power wheelchair to suit Bob’s postural and environmental needs.

This marks a huge milestone, as it’s Bob’s first time using a power wheelchair after spending the last few decades in a manual chair.

Bob is already experiencing greater independence, improved comfort, and more freedom in his everyday life; something we’re so proud to be part of.

📅 July 1 is closer than it feels...

This is the date that will require all Supported Independent Living (SIL) providers to be registered, marking one of the biggest regulatory shifts our sector has seen.

While this may feel overwhelming for some, at Brighter Access, we’ve already walked this path.

We are proud to be, and have long been, a registered NDIS provider, with systems, processes and practices already aligned to what others are now preparing for.

Registration, audits and compliance aren’t new to us. It’s simply how we operate every day. As the sector moves forward, we’re here: experienced, prepared and ready.

If you’d like to learn more, or you’re looking for a new, trusted SIL provider, reach out to our team today.

🎶🎡 Tamworth Country Music Festival fun for Allison and Lucy!

Tamworth Participant Allison, alongside her Brighter Access Support Worker and adorable doggy sidekick Lucy, enjoyed a wonderful day soaking up the atmosphere at the Tamworth Country Music Festival.

They explored the lively streets, took in the sounds of talented buskers, and even braved the Ferris Wheel for a view from above! It was a day filled with music, smiles, and memorable moments for Allison and Lucy.

Our Story

Brighter Access is a community based, non-government service provider committed to supporting individuals with a disability and their families.

The organisation was established in 1979 by a group of interested parents who saw the need for mutual support and the necessity of having regular breaks from the responsibility of caring for a family member with a disability. Brighter Access is committed to provide support for families with children/adults with disability and/or children with additional needs. Brighter Access supports five person-centred values: Making choices, valued social role, growing relationships, ordinary places and developing abilities. As a registered NDIS provider, we have grown over the years and expanded services throughout the New England, Hunter, Central Coast and the Mid North Coast.

Since expanding in Supported Independent Living (SIL), a wonderful partnership between Brighter Access and Enlarge Living has formed which focuses on opening opportunities for people with disability to dream, design and live where they want to live, with who they want to live with.
