Self-funded and Fee for Service Packages
You do not have to have government-approved funding packages, such as NDIS to access our disability supports and services.
Self-funded is a way for you to pay for services with your own money. This option provides flexibility to access the supports you need if you have a one-off request, or if your government funding package does not cover what you need. You can also self-fund supports while you wait for approval of a funding package.
Fee for Service Packages are also available for people who are self-funded and would like to access our range of disability services.
Contact us to explore your funding options.
