NDIS Community Access refers to supports that help participants get out into the community, engage in social activities, attend appointments, go shopping, or participate in events and recreational activities. It’s all about building independence, confidence, and social inclusion.

Community Access can include a wide range of activities such as:

  • Going to the gym or swimming
  • Attending social groups or classes
  • Visiting friends or family
  • Going shopping or to appointments
  • Attending community events or outings

All activities should be goal-oriented and aligned with what’s included in your NDIS plan.

Community Access is generally funded under the Core Supports category, particularly under “Assistance with Social and Community Participation.” However, if the focus is on skill-building (e.g., learning to travel independently), it may fall under Capacity Building – Increased Social and Community Participation.

There’s no set number of hours for everyone. The hours allocated will depend on your individual goals, needs, and the reasonable and necessary criteria applied in your NDIS plan. You can discuss this with your Support Coordinator or LAC (Local Area Coordinator).

Yes, if you’re self-managed or plan-managed, you have the flexibility to choose your own support worker or provider. If you’re agency-managed, your options may be limited to NDIS-registered providers.

Yes, participants are responsible for their own personal expenses such as entry tickets, meals, or shopping costs. NDIS funding covers the support worker’s time and transport, not the participant’s own purchases.

Yes, if it's part of your Community Access support, your support worker can transport you. They can either use their own vehicle (with mileage reimbursed through your plan) or yours, depending on your agreement. Always check with your provider regarding transport charges.

To request Community Access, talk to your planner or LAC during your plan review. Explain your goals and how participating in the community helps your independence, wellbeing, and inclusion. You may also submit reports from therapists or support coordinators to support your request.
