The National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) is an Australian government initiative designed to provide funding and support for individuals with permanent and significant disabilities. The program aims to enhance the independence, social participation, and overall quality of life for people with disabilities by providing them access to essential services, assistive equipment, therapies, and community resources. NDIS funding is available to Australian citizens, permanent residents, or Protected Special Category Visa holders under the age of 65 at the time of application.
To qualify for the NDIS, you must:
You can manage NDIS funding in three main ways:
The NDIS supports individuals with physical, intellectual, sensory, cognitive, and psychosocial disabilities. However, not all health conditions qualify. Temporary or non-permanent conditions generally do not meet eligibility requirements, but permanent disabilities that significantly impact daily life may qualify.
You can reach us via phone, email, or our website’s contact form. Our dedicated team is ready to answer your questions, provide further guidance, and assist you with your NDIS journey.
Step 1: Check Eligibility
Verify that you meet the NDIS eligibility criteria, including age, residency, and disability requirements.
Step 2: Gather Documentation
Collect necessary medical records, assessments, and supporting documents that demonstrate the nature of your disability and its impact on your daily life.
Step 3: Submit an Access Request
Complete an NDIS Access Request form, either online through the NDIS portal, over the phone, or by mailing a paper form. Submit your documentation along with the request.
Step 4: Meet with a Planner
If your application is approved, you’ll meet with an NDIS planner who will help create a personalized plan based on your support needs and goals.
Step 5: Plan Approval and Funding Allocation
Once your plan is approved, you’ll receive funding for the supports listed in the plan, which you can then use to access services.
The NDIS provides funding for a range of supports and services, including:
Yes, if your initial application is unsuccessful, you may appeal the decision or reapply. New evidence or additional documentation can strengthen a reapplication, and Newdawn Support Services can guide you through the reapplication process.

During the initial consultation, we gather information about your requirements, goals, and personality to find a Support Worker who will work well with you. Our aim is to create a comfortable, supportive environment.
In your first session, the Support Worker will typically spend time getting to know you, understanding your goals, and discussing your care needs. They will explain their role, answer any questions you may have, and outline how they will support you in achieving your goals.
Support Workers provide scheduled, planned support, but in the case of an emergency, Newdawn Support Services will work to ensure that urgent assistance is arranged. Emergency response can vary depending on the circumstances and availability of local support services.
To get started, simply contact us via our website, phone, or email to discuss your needs. We’ll walk you through the intake process, help you understand how support services can be funded through the NDIS, and match you with a Support Worker who fits your needs and preferences.
