Getting from A to B shouldn’t be a daily challenge.
But for many NDIS participants, transport is one of the biggest barriers to independence.

Whether it's getting to appointments, work, community activities, or simply staying connected with loved ones — understanding your NDIS transport options matters.

In our latest blog, we break down:
🚐 What NDIS transport funding actually covers
🔍 The 3 types of transport supports (and which one fits your needs)
🙋‍♀️ What happens if you can’t travel alone — and how a support worker can help
🧭 How a Support Coordinator makes it all easier to manage

At Hand in Hand Support Coordination, we help NDIS participants across Melbourne and Victoria navigate transport with confidence and make sure your plan actually works for your life.

The NDIS Commission has announced its priorities for 2025–26 with a clear focus on participant safety, worker training, and stronger safeguards across the sector.

This means:
✔️ Stricter rules around restrictive practices
✔️ Better oversight of unregistered providers

Big changes are coming to the NDIS — are you ready?

The government is introducing foundational supports, a new tier of services for people who may not qualify for a full NDIS plan.

But for people with psychosocial disability or complex needs, this could mean a change in how supports are delivered, or even a risk of being moved to less tailored services.

If you’re an NDIS participant with complex needs, it’s important to understand how these changes could affect your plan.

☑️ What foundational supports are
☑️ Why they matter for people with complex disability
☑️ What’s happening now
☑️ What you can do to stay on track

🐾 Can the NDIS fund an assistance dog?

For many people living with complex or psychosocial disabilities, an assistance dog can be life-changing — offering independence, safety, and support in daily life.

But getting one funded through the NDIS isn’t simple. It requires:
✔️ Clear evidence from health professionals
✔️ Proof the dog is trained by an accredited provider
✔️ A strong link to your NDIS plan goals
✔️ Showing that it’s “reasonable and necessary”

Our latest blog breaks down:
➡️ What counts as an assistance dog under the NDIS
➡️ When funding may be approved
➡️ What costs are covered (and what’s not)
➡️ Common reasons applications are declined
➡️ How Support Coordination can help you through the process

Housing isn’t just about bricks and mortar, it’s about stability, safety, and independence.

✔️ How to access a Behaviour Support Plan
✔️ Why PBS matters in housing
✔️ How our coordination helps bring it all together
