What Is NDIS Community Participation?

NDIS community participation provides individualised support to help participants actively engage in social, recreational, and civic activities. Funded under Core Supports – Assistance with Social, Economic and Community Participation (Category 04), this service covers the dedicated support worker assistance you need to participate safely outside your home.

Community access is about more than leaving the house. It enables you to practice real-world social communication, make decisions about your leisure time, and build everyday independence at your own pace.

Our Individualised Community Participation Support

We provide focused, one-on-one assistance designed around your individual schedule and goals:

1

Attending Local Events & Social Outings

Get out and enjoy Perth’s rich cultural scene. We provide transport and active companionship to local markets, sporting fixtures, festivals, cinemas, museums, and community gatherings.

2

Pursuing Hobbies & Recreation

Spend time doing what you love. From joining a local gym, attending swimming sessions, or taking gardening classes to visiting art galleries and gaming clubs, we support your active involvement.

3

Practical Everyday Skills in the Community

Use community visits to practice functional life skills. We assist you with planning outing itineraries, ordering meals at restaurants, managing purchases and receipts, and communicating with retail staff.

4

Safe Transport & Public Transit Confidence

Overcoming transport barriers is critical for community inclusion. Our workers can provide reliable private transport or assist you in mastering public transit routes, ticketing, and bus/train schedules.

5

Expanding Social Networks & Peer Connections
