Here at Lifeplan, we are committed to helping you live your life, your way. We do this by providing tailored, individual supports, to suit your lifestyle. Part of this process, is ensuring you have an NDIS Plan in place to meet these needs. An important part of getting this plan in place, is clearly defining your life goals to your NDIS Planner. In other words, defining what you need to live your life, your way.

If you are new to the NDIS, or if you have a review meeting coming up, there are some great resources out there, to help make sure you have the right information ready. We have compiled some tips, to ensure you have a successful and productive planning meeting. [Read more…]
