Horizons Support Network Brisbane NDIS support for self-managed and plan-managed participants. HORIZONS Support Network is a non-registered provider.

We do not support NDIA-managed funding or provide Support Coordination.

If you've heard the NDIS is halving your funding from 1 October, we get why that's scary.

Here's what's actually happening. Two parts of the plan are getting smaller. Social, economic and community participation is going down by 50%, and improved daily living skills by 10%. The rest of your plan isn't being cut.

It also doesn't all happen on 1 October. It kicks in when your plan is next approved, reassessed or renewed, and it rolls out over the next year. Until then, keep using your plan like you normally would.

Pop this in your saved posts for your next plan meeting. And if you want to talk it through, just send us a message. We're happy to help.

Your support worker should not be cooking for you.

Not everyone. Some people can’t cook, and that’s fine. This is about the people who can learn, with the right support.

Like Peter. He didn’t know a recipe from a shopping list. So Ryan showed him. One step, one Wednesday at a time.

Peter picked the meal. Bought the ingredients. Read the recipe himself. Ryan’s hands stayed ready, but Peter’s did the work.

Now he cooks from start to finish. That’s not support. That’s someone learning to lead his own life.

From 1 October 2026, funding for some NDIS supports changes.

On the Department of Health pages, budget allocations for social, economic and community participation supports are reduced by 50%. Improved daily living skills supports are reduced by 10%. A lower allocation does not necessarily mean you spend that much less if you were not using the full allocation.

That is two support groups, not every line in the plan. Health says critical supports and other plan parts sit outside this change. Some supports inside those two categories also stay out (for example employment and high intensity).

The change lands when a plan is created or reassessed from 1 October 2026, or renewed from 1 February 2027. Health applies it as plans turn over from 1 October 2026 through 30 September 2027. You keep using your current plan until that moment.

For Brisbane families we support, this budget policy sits on Social and Community Participation and Independent Living Skills. It is separate from SIL registration, Provider Registration Rules, and the 2027 high-risk registration work.

Home should feel like a place where you can feel safe, comfortable, and yourself. 🏡💛

For autistic people, creating a safer home isn’t about putting restrictions on everything. It’s about understanding individual needs, reducing overwhelm, building practical skills, and creating routines that make everyday life easier to navigate.

Sometimes, small changes can make a big difference.

And with the right support, safety can go hand in hand with confidence and independence.

If you’re a parent, family member, or participant looking for support with everyday living skills and greater independence, we’re here to help.

🐾 A morning well spent at the RSPCA! 💚

Xavier has been showing up consistently and putting in the work towards his goal of volunteering, and that’s a win worth celebrating! 🙌

From walking the dogs 🐕 and helping prepare their food 🥣 to plenty of cuddles and playtime, his mornings are all about building confidence, developing skills, and being part of the community.

And right beside him is Chris, supporting Xavier every step of the way. 🤝 Whether it’s helping him stay on track or simply being there, having the right support can make a big difference.

Small steps. Consistent effort. Big progress. 💪✨

✈️ Tom definitely knows his planes!

Tom and Lauren spent the day at Fellowship Place doing some plane spotting, and he had the best time. 😄

They used Flight Radar to track the planes coming through, and Tom knew the flight times for each destination. Safe to say, he was right in his element! 👏

For us, days like this are about more than simply going somewhere. They’re about supporting people to enjoy their interests, build confidence, connect with their community and have experiences that genuinely mean something to them.

That’s what person-first support should look like. 🧡

THIS or THAT? 🤔

Everyone's idea of a good day looks a little different. Some days call for quiet time and space to think. Other days, it's about being around people who understand.

The good news is that Brisbane has plenty of both, and your Social and Community Participation funding can help make either one happen.

We've put together 8 real, accessible spots across the city, from sensory-friendly art galleries to guided kayaking, from peaceful garden walks to weekly drama classes. Have a scroll through the comments below to see all 8, then let us know which one sounds more like you.

Are you a THIS, or a THAT? Tell us in the comments, and we'll help you turn it into a real plan. We are just one click away 👇

🗑️ Dump trip with Peter! 🚗💪

What looks like a simple everyday task can be a big step towards confidence and independence. With Chris there to support him, Peter gets to take the lead, build skills, and feel good about getting things done. 🙌💙

The right support isn’t about doing everything for someone. It’s about helping participants feel confident to do more for themselves. 🤝
