NDIS support

We’re helping you find your way through the NDIS process.

Negotiating the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) to get a plan and supports that best suit your needs can be challenging. PWDA can support people with disability work their way through the various stages of the NDIS process.

Some of the ways we can help include:

NDIS appeals

Sometimes, not everything goes perfectly to plan when applying for the NDIS. PWDA can be of service to you if you are in this situation.

The NDIS appeals process was set up to ensure that people with disability affected by reviewable decisions of the National Disability Insurance Agency (NDIA), have access to support when seeking review of those decisions.

PWDA can support people living in certain areas to appeal a decision made by the NDIA.

We can support you to make an appeal if you live in:

Southern Highlands and Shoalhaven areas of NSW.
Capital Region in NSW (also called Southern NSW) – Baulkham Hills and Hawkesbury, Blacktown, Sydney City and Inner South, Eastern Suburbs, Inner West, North Sydney, Hornsby, Northern Beaches, Outer South West, Outer West and Blue Mountains, Parramatta, Ryde, South West and Sutherland.
Queensland, including Outback South region of Port Douglas-Daintree and Far North Queensland region

If you live outside of these areas, you should still get in touch as we will be able to inform you about the best local services to contact.

Sometimes we have NDIS appeal information sessions in different places in NSW and Queensland.
