SUPPORT FOR DISABLED PEOPLE
Living with a disability is difficult but there are many people out there who can help to make life easier. It is important to share concerns and worries with families and friends because they tend to mount up and can contribute to conditions such as stress, depression and anxiety. The government (NDIS) offers financial support to individuals with disability; this helps to cover the cost of additional equipment and medical care.
If you are caring for a person with a disability, this can also be very challenging and may leave you feeling mentally and physically drained. If you are struggling to cope or you simply need a little extra help, contact your local authority and discuss additional care for your loved ones.
