Not everyone who lives with a disability in Australia is part of the NDIS, and that’s something a lot of people don’t realise at first. The National Disability Insurance Agency reported that just over half a million Australians currently receive NDIS funding. But there are millions more — around 4.4 million — living with some form of disability. That means most people don’t have an NDIS plan or package in place.
Still, life doesn’t stop there. Getting the right kind of help shouldn’t depend only on whether you’ve got government funding. At Support Network, we know that care, comfort, and independence can’t always wait for approval letters or eligibility checks. That’s why we also help people who aren’t part of the NDIS to find and access support on their own terms.
Through Support Network, you can connect with experienced and qualified support workers who provide assistance across a wide range of needs. Whether it’s someone to lend a hand around the house, help with daily routines, or just be there for transport or social activities — you can find the right match and set things up the way you prefer.
Each support worker brings something unique — their own background, skills, and rates — so you can decide what fits best for your lifestyle and comfort. Many people who don’t receive NDIS funding still build steady, reliable support circles through us. You can reach out, make arrangements directly, and know that everything — from scheduling to payment — stays simple and transparent.
For people who don’t have NDIS funding, paying privately can actually bring more flexibility. There’s no waiting for approvals or fixed price limits. You get to decide how often support happens, who you work with, and what kind of help feels most useful.
At Support Network, we make sure that process stays easy and stress-free. Payments are secure and digital, so both you and your worker can focus on the support itself, not the paperwork. It’s a way of keeping things personal — you know who’s helping you, what they charge, and what you’re paying for.
Even without NDIS funding, you can still access real, meaningful support from passionate people in your area. Support Network is about connecting people, not just managing plans. Because everyone — funded or not — deserves care that fits their life.
