What is NDIS Assist Travel/Transport?

NDIS Assist Travel/Transport is a support service under the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) in Australia. It is designed to help people with disabilities move around more easily and access their communities.

The service focuses on providing personalized transport solutions that match each participant’s needs, including practical training and the use of accessible vehicles like Modified Mobility Vehicles (MMVs). By offering these supports, NDIS Assist Travel/Transport helps individuals with disabilities attend important appointments, engage in social activities, and live more independently.

This service is key to promoting inclusivity and ensuring everyone can take part in community life.
