Assisted Travel

NDIS Assisted Travel provides support to participants of the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) to help them travel safely and independently. This includes assistance with transportation to and from medical appointments, social activities, educational institutions, and other community engagements. At Reaching Abilities, we offer reliable and personalised assisted travel services to meet the unique needs of our participants.

To be eligible for NDIS Assisted Travel, participants must have travel support needs included in their NDIS plan. This typically applies to individuals who have difficulty using public transport or require assistance to travel due to their disability. During the NDIS planning meeting, participants should discuss their travel needs and provide relevant information to ensure this support is included in their plan.

At Reaching Abilities, we provide a variety of transportation support services, including:

• Door-to-door transport to medical appointments, therapy sessions, and other essential services
• Assistance with using public transport
• Transport to social, recreational, and community activities
• Travel training to build confidence and independence
• Coordination with other support services to ensure seamless travel arrangements

Our goal is to make travel as safe, convenient, and comfortable as possible for our participants.

To include assisted travel in your NDIS plan, discuss your travel support needs during your NDIS planning meeting. Be sure to provide detailed information about your current travel challenges, the types of travel assistance you require, and how this support will help you achieve your goals. Once approved, you can choose Reaching Abilities as your provider for these services. Our team can help you prepare for your planning meeting to ensure your needs are clearly communicated.
