Question 1

Disability, Personal Care through our Support Staff

Accepted Answer

Assisting and supporting personal tasks of daily life to enable the participant to live as autonomously as possible.

Question 2

Transport and access to Community

Accepted Answer

Transport enables participants to access disability support outside their homes for travel to and from doctor/specialist appointments, grocery shopping, and daily errands. We have a 12-seater bus and wheelchair-accessible vehicle as part of our fleet.

Wollondilly Shire Council aims to support local community groups to foster community participation, social connectedness and overall inclusion and accessibility by paying eligible providers directly for a $500 bus booking cost for community groups. Only Not-for-Profit Community Groups based in Wollondilly will be considered to be eligible through this subsidy program. It is the responsibility of each community group to contact the Council to ensure they are deemed eligible to access the subsidy program.

Council will maintain a confidential register of eligible community groups that will only be made available to approved transport providers and relevant Council staff.

Eligible activities include attending local events, community outings, or other enriching experiences that promote social connectedness and promote health and wellbeing. The subsidy program is only available for day trip bookings. To be eligible to receive the subsidy, each booking requires a minimum of five individuals to be in attendance.

The subsidy program is not available for the following:

To sporting clubs or school groups unless it is for the purpose of representing Wollondilly in a regional, state or national competition.
To any person or group for personal or family purposes.
For trips to the snowfields.
For holiday transfers, including airport and cruise terminal transport.
For any ‘party’ activities such as ‘bucks parties’, ‘hens parties’ or ‘brewery and  winery’ tours.
 For activities that are ‘for profit’ making purposes

If you are not eligible for the rebate, the bus can still be booked for an hourly support staff community access rate per passenger plus a cost per km.
