NDIS Community Access Support in NSW & QLD — Building Independence, Connection & a Life Well Lived
Pursue Ability delivers registered NDIS Community Access support across New South Wales and Queensland. Our support workers walk alongside participants — building social connections, developing community confidence, and creating real opportunities for inclusion, participation, and joy.
What is NDIS Community Access Support?
NDIS Community Access is funded under the National Disability Insurance Scheme under Core Supports — Assistance with Social, Economic and Community Participation (support category 04). It helps participants engage in social, recreational, educational, and civic activities in their local community.
At Pursue Ability, our Community Access support workers do far more than accompany participants to activities — they actively support participants to build real relationships, develop social confidence, explore their interests, and participate fully and meaningfully in the communities they belong to. Whether it is joining a local sports team, learning to use public transport, or simply having a coffee with a friend — our team is there to make it happen, safely and on the participant’s own terms.
