YOUR HELPFUL GUIDE TO THE NDIS

Did you know that over 4 million Australians are living with some form of disability? Each year the NDIS funds support to the value of billions of dollars so that anyone living with disability can still enjoy an independent, fulfilling life. Carer Mates aims to bridge these supports, making them easily accessible to everyone in Darwin, including First Nations people and to help in overcoming cultural or linguistic barriers.

Applying For The NDIS

The NDIS is for you. With the NDIS you can prosper, dream, imagine, explore and be nourished in all aspects of your life.


The National Disability Insurance Scheme is the golden key to unlocking the life of your dreams. All Australians can benefit with just a few fundamental criteria. If you are an Australian resident with a permanent or significant disability that requires ongoing support you can qualify for the NDIS. To become a registered participant, you must be between the ages of 7 and 65, however, if you fall outside this age group you can still access support through the Early Childhood Intervention Programme or the My Aged Care Plan. Simply head over to the NDIS official website for all the necessary documentation required and fill out an online application form as your first step to receiving professional care. Carer Mates encourages you to make use of these supports, as we are here to assist you in the process. You will see a world of difference in terms of your comfort, health and daily living. Your life is worth living to the full and with both Carer Mates and the NDIS, you can achieve your dreams!
