Overview

Community Access for NDIS participants in Perth

What is it? Community access, listed under the NDIS as Assistance with Social, Economic and Community Participation, is support that helps you get out and take part in community life. It can be social, recreational, educational or skill-building, and it’s about building a fuller, more connected life beyond the home.

A good life doesn’t happen at home alone. Community access support from Pacific Community Care helps NDIS participants across Perth get out, try new things, build friendships and take part in the activities that make life meaningful.

As a registered NDIS provider in Perth, we support participation on your terms, whether that’s a standing coffee catch-up, a gym routine, a class, volunteering, a footy game or exploring Perth’s beaches, parks and markets. Our workers travel with you and support you to build confidence and independence along the way.

We don’t believe in filling time. Every activity is chosen with you, aimed at your goals, reducing isolation, building skills, growing confidence and connecting you to the parts of Perth life you want to be part of.
