47%

Hard to find

Only 47% of NDIS participants surveyed said they had enough information to make an informed decision. More than half are choosing without the full picture.

57%

Hard to find the right fit

57% said it wasn’t easy to find providers who could deliver services. So people fall back on word of mouth.

90%

Off the official list

90% of NDIS social and community participation providers aren’t registered, so they’re not on the NDIA’s Provider Finder. Most local options are invisible to anyone searching there.

How Come Along will work

  1. 01

    Hosts are checked, then listed

    We check each host’s insurance and worker checks, and visit, before they go live.

  2. 02

    You find a fit and get in touch

    Search by day, suburb and access needs, then get in touch with the activity host and share the support you need.

  3. 03

    The host gets to know you

    A quick chat or a meet-and-greet, to agree the right support before you start.

  4. 04

    You go, and the host is paid directly

    Fees go straight to the host, or the host invoices your plan manager. Come Along never touches your money.

Come Along never touches your money or your NDIS funds. Hosts are paid directly, and it’s free for you.

Run a class? You’ll list it free while we start out (then a flat monthly fee for businesses; community groups like men’s sheds stay free), set your spots and access details, and hear from people who are a good fit. Register interest

Questions

Looking for classes

Is Come Along free?

Yes. It’s always free for participants, older people, families, carers, support workers and coordinators.

Can my NDIS plan pay for classes?

The NDIS doesn’t pay ordinary class fees, entry or memberships, so you pay those to the host like anyone else. Your plan may pay for the support around an activity, such as a support worker coming with you, or an NDIS group program run by a disability provider, which invoices your plan manager. Come Along never handles NDIS funds or any of your money.

Can my support worker come with me?

Yes, wherever the host welcomes them, and every listing will say so up front, including whether they get in free (for example with a Companion Card).

How are hosts checked?

Before anyone is listed, we check their insurance and worker checks, they agree to our host code of conduct (based on the NDIS Code of Conduct), and we visit in person to confirm the access details.

What happens to my details?

Only Come Along sees them. We don’t sell them or pass them to hosts. You can unsubscribe or ask us to delete them any time. Read the privacy notice.

Running a class

What does it cost to list?

Nothing while we start out. After that, businesses pay a flat monthly fee, the same whether or not anyone books, and community groups like men’s sheds stay free. It’s never added to anyone’s invoice, and we’ll confirm the amount before you’re charged.

Do I need to be NDIS registered?

No. Most classes, clubs and men’s sheds aren’t NDIS providers, and that’s fine. We check your insurance and worker checks and visit before you’re listed.

How do I get paid?

Directly, the way you are now. People pay class fees to you, and NDIS group programs invoice the plan manager as usual. No payments go through Come Along.

Can I pay to be shown first?

No. Classes will be shown by distance, time, access and open spots, never by anything a host pays.
