NDIS shopping assistance on the Gold Coast

How shopping assistance can help

Shopping involves more than getting to the shops. Making a list, finding items, managing bags and returning home can all require different kinds of assistance. We plan the visit around the parts you want to do yourself.

What we can discuss

• Preparing a list and planning the trip
• Assistance finding and carrying items
• Unpacking purchases at home

Planning your support

Discuss your preferred shop, a comfortable time to visit and your spending limit. You remain in control of purchasing decisions. Support arrangements should make clear how receipts and payments are handled; shopping costs are separate from the worker’s time.

Your preferences come first

Tell us what you want to do independently and where assistance would help. We discuss the tasks and required skills before agreeing on a visit. Availability, visit length and charges depend on the proposed arrangement.

If a task needs specialised equipment or instructions from another professional, explain this during your enquiry so suitability can be assessed.
