Understanding your plan
Core Supports are the part of your NDIS plan that helps with everyday living. They fund support with daily tasks, taking part in your community and getting around, so you can live the way you choose.
Your Core budget is usually flexible. That means you can often move funding between these supports as your needs change.
Not sure what your plan includes? Send it to us and we will walk you through it.
