Understanding
the NDIS

What is the NDIS?

The National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) provides funding to Australians under 65 with permanent and significant disability, helping them access the supports and services they need to live independently and achieve their goals.

With the NDIS, you have choice and control over your supports, whether it’s for skill-building, community activities, employment or volunteering. It’s all about empowering you to live the life you want.

Our dedicated team is here to help you navigate your plan, maximise your funding, and connect with the right services to reach your goals. With our extensive experience and strong history of supporting people across Sydney Northern Beaches and Lower North Shore, you can feel confident that you’re in good hands.

We’re here to help guide you through the process!

We can help you with:

  • Learning new life skills and maintaining the ones you already have

  • Acquiring skills for living independently or as independently as possible

  • Supporting you in accessing and participating in your community and beyond

  • Facilitating and support home, centre or community based recreational and leisure

  • Obtaining work and pre-vocational skills that will help you get a job

  • Finding and keeping a job

  • Building relationships and making new friends

  • Using technology such as electronic devices

Northside Enterprise Inc. sets its support costs based on the NDIS pricing arrangements, considering several key factors:

  • The specific type of support provided.

  • The setting where the support is delivered, whether at a work hub, in a residential home, or out in the community.

  • The time of day the service is offered.

  • The complexity of the participant’s individual needs and level of assistance required.

  • The support arrangement, whether one-on-one with a support worker or shared with a small group.
