Ryan's story shows how finding the right support can make all the difference. Now he loves life and couldn't be any happier.

Many NDIS recipients are finding the new funding model difficult to navigate. Come to the Sydney Disability Expo where The Benevolent Society and other providers and government agencies will help you find the best supports to fit your needs.

The Sydney Disability Expo is proud to announce that Paralympian snowboarder Joany Badenhorst will be our 2018 ambassador.

As human beings, we all deserve to feel a sense of purpose in the world. While having purpose means different things to different people, having a job is often a major contributing factor to building a strong sense of purpose. When we look back through history the human race has always sought out work, in different forms through time, but always contributing to our reason for being and our sense of belonging and contributing.

Through an individualised budget, the NDIS aims to give people with a disability, their families and carers, the ability to take charge of the supports they require, have flexibility to choose the service providers they want, and decide how they want their services managed. As with anything new, there is always some anxiety and confusion. You may be asking yourself ‘what does this means for me?’

The My Pathway group of services is the ‘front door’ to Achieve Australia. Members of the My Pathway team support people with disability, families and guardians from their first contact with the organisation, through the journey of identifying and then connecting with the supports and services required.

At ARC Care and Ability, we're about empowering your independence, so you can live the most rewarding life possible no matter what you're dealing with in life. No two situations are ever the same.

The Sydney Disability Expo is a unique community experience and will be Sydney’s largest disability expo, with up to 3000 people expected to attend over the 2-day event. The Expo will give greater Sydney residents quality face-to-face time with service providers, as well as a range of government agencies and advocacy groups.
