Disability support from a team that knows Penrith
Our office is at 93 Beames Avenue, Rooty Hill, about 20 minutes’ drive east of Penrith along the M4 or the Great Western Highway, and on the same T1 Western Line, so getting to us by train is simple. Our support workers live and work across Western Sydney, and you’re welcome to drop in to meet the team before you start.
We support NDIS participants in Penrith and nearby suburbs including Kingswood, Cambridge Park, Jamisontown, South Penrith, Glenmore Park, Werrington and Emu Plains. Whether you need help at home every day or a few hours a week to get out into the community, we build your supports around your goals and what your NDIS plan funds.
As a registered NDIS provider, we work with self-managed, plan-managed and NDIA-managed plans, and we explain how invoicing works for your plan at our first meeting.
