NDIS social & community participation in Canberra
Barmil offers NDIS community participation support in Canberra to help you access social activities and places you choose. Tell us who you want to spend time with, where you want to go and the assistance you need to take part.
More room for the things and people you enjoy.
NDIS social and community participation centres on the activity you want to attend. You might need community access support to visit a local library, meet friends or take part in a cultural event. The choices and interests are yours.
We discuss the practical details: where you want to go, what help you need on arrival and during the activity, and any arrangements for getting home. Support time, travel and ordinary activity costs should be clarified before you book.
Everyday community access is the focus here. A shared session belongs under group activities. Where an individual barrier needs tailored preparation, innovative community participation may be worth discussing.
