Disability and lifestyle supports

We believe everyone has the right to live a rich and fulfilling life that is not defined by disability — a life where you're free to make your own decisions, however big or small.

With coverage across South-East Queensland, Townsville and Toowoomba, we encourage people to challenge their limits and support them in setting their long-term goals.

UnitingCare is a registered NDIS provider

This means we meet the high standards required by the NDIA and can deliver services and supports to people who have their plan managed by the NDIA, as well as those who self-manage or use a third party.
