NDIS Services
We support NDIS participants with flexible and individualised NDIS services.
Living with disabilities can be challenging, but with the right support and services, people living with disabilities can achieve their goals and improve their quality of life. We understand that you or your loved one is unique (and rightly so), so we provide personalised services to assist in achieving your goals.
Our NDIS Services
The services we offer were built on the principles of individualised, creativity, and transparency. Our services are staffed by a team of experienced support coordinators who are committed to working closely with each individual to understand their needs and goals and to develop a plan that is tailored to their specific circumstances.
Better Connections NT provides a range of NDIS services including:
NDIS Support Coordination
We love to help people living with a disability to navigate the NDIS system and coordinate their NDIS plan, ensuring they receive the support and services they need to achieve their goals.
NDIS Support
Support workers provide a wide range of services and supports, including personal care, domestic assistance, community participation, social and recreational activities, and skills development. Our team works in a variety of settings, including the person's own home, in the community, and in residential settings.
Short-term accommodation
NDIS short term accommodation provides a temporary accommodation option helpful for a range of reasons, such as to provide respite for carers, to support people with disabilities during a period of transition, or to provide a safe and supportive environment for people with complex needs who require intensive support.
NDIS Funded Activities
Funded activities are formed to encourage and help people living with disabilities to achieve their goals, build skills and confidence, and participate more fully in their communities. These activities which include NDIS cooking classes, NDIS funded art classes, NDIS shed program, NDIS metalwork classes, NDIS automotive classes and our Day program are an effective way to improve overall wellbeing and quality of life.
Why work with us?
Since its launch, Better Connections NT has become a trusted and respected provider of support coordination services in the Northern Territory. The organisation has a strong track record of delivering positive outcomes for the people it supports and has earned a reputation for its personalised and inclusive approach to disability support coordination.
We understand first-hand the importance of being connected with the right services, the right people and the right friendships. The idea for Better Connections NT was born, when our founder and owner, Amanda, was unable to find the right services for her son.
The journey of people living with disabilities is not always easy, but with the right support and resources, it is possible to overcome obstacles and achieve a fulfilling and meaningful life.
Who is Better Connections NT?
Founded in 2019 by experienced disability advocates and service providers, Better Connections NT saw a need for a more personalised and inclusive approach to disability support coordination in the region.
The team at Better Connections NT had worked in the disability sector for many years and had seen first-hand the challenges faced by people with disabilities and their families when navigating the complex and often confusing NDIS system. We recognised that there was a need for services that could provide more individualised and person-centred support coordination, focusing on the needs and goals of the individual, rather than simply ticking boxes to meet NDIS compliance requirements.
Frequently Asked Questions
NDIS is a national scheme that was launched in 2013. Its primary goal is to provide funding and support to people with disabilities to help them live more independently and participate in their communities. The NDIS is available to Australians under the age of 65 who have a permanent and significant disability.
To access NDIS services, people with disabilities need to apply and go through an assessment process to determine eligibility. If eligible, an NDIS plan will be provided which outlines the needs, goals, and the supports and services that will be received. The NDIS plan is flexible and can be adjusted over time to meet changing needs and goals.
The NDIS services help people with disabilities achieve their goals and improve their quality of life. Some of the services available under the NDIS include:
- Support Coordination: Assistance in managing NDIS plans, connecting with service providers, and coordinating services.
- Allied Health Services: Provision of therapies and supports from health professionals such as occupational therapists, physiotherapists, psychologists, and speech therapists.
- Assistive Technology: Provision of equipment, devices, and aids to help people with disabilities to live more independently.
- Home Modifications: Changes to the home environment to improve accessibility and safety for people with disabilities.
- Daily Living Supports: Assistance with daily activities such as personal care, household tasks, and social and community participation.
- Employment Supports: Assistance with finding and maintaining employment, including job coaching, workplace modifications, and vocational training.

- Improved independence: NDIS services can help people with disabilities live more independently by providing them with the support and tools they need to manage their daily activities.
