NDIS Community Participation

Getting out getting involved and feeling connected

Stepping outside, meeting people, joining events—it sounds simple, but for many living with a disability, it’s not always easy.

What is Community Participation Under NDIS?

It’s not just about being there. It’s about belonging.

NDIS Community Participation refers to funded support that helps participants get involved in social, community, and recreational activities. This might include:

We currently support participants across areas such as:

Visiting local libraries or community centres
Attending fitness groups or yoga sessions
Participating in social clubs or interest-based groups
Going shopping or to the movies
Volunteering or skill-building workshops
Even going out for a walk or coffee with support

It’s all about promoting inclusion, independence, and confidence.

We support, you choose

Why Community Participation Matters

Being part of something makes life richer

Spending time in the community has massive benefits for both mental and emotional wellbeing. It builds self-esteem, reduces loneliness, and helps develop skills that lead to greater independence. Here’s what regular community participation helps with:

Confidence building

Step out with someone you trust and slowly grow your comfort zone.

Improved communication

Practice interacting, expressing yourself, and connecting with others.

Mental health benefits

Social interaction helps reduce anxiety, depression, and stress.

Skill development

Learn real-life skills in real-life settings—shopping, travel, time management and more.
