A participant will generally be able to access funding through the NDIS for transport assistance if the participant cannot use public transport without substantial difficulty due to their disability. Funding takes into account any relevant taxi subsidy scheme, and it does not cover transport assistance for carers to transport their family member with a disability for everyday commitments.

Under NDIS travel assistance to access daily activities is a funded option and an important part of the need for you to get around the community and access the things that are important to meet your goals. Getting to and from activities can be a difficulty at times so please talk to us about how we might assist you with travel assistance
