What community participation involves

Community participation is support to get out there: social outings, hobbies, sport, classes, volunteering, events and the everyday places that make up a life. A support worker comes alongside you — one-to-one or in a small group — so you can take part on your own terms.

It's usually funded under Assistance with Social, Economic and Community Participation in Core Supports. Your plan and the NDIA decide what's funded.

What's included

  • Social and recreational outings
  • Classes, hobbies and sport
  • Volunteering and community events
  • Building confidence in new places
  • One-to-one or small-group support

Community participation around Marayong

Marayong is an urban residential suburb about 32 km north-west of the Sydney CBD, in the City of Blacktown. Richmond Road marks its southern boundary, and it neighbours Blacktown, Quakers Hill, Kings Park and Woodcroft.

Community participation in Marayong starts with what's close to home, and the community programs and events run by Blacktown City Council, listed on the council's website.

For outings further afield, Marayong station (T1 North Shore & Western Line; T5 Cumberland Line) connects Marayong to the rest of Sydney. Practising a train trip with a support worker is often a goal in its own right.

Local places that often feature in plans include Max Webber Library (Blacktown).

Many people we support also spend time in nearby Blacktown, Quakers Hill and Prospect, and activities don't have to stop at the suburb boundary.

Questions

Community participation in Marayong: common questions

What can I do around Marayong with community participation support?

Whatever you'd like to work towards. Close to home that might include Max Webber Library (Blacktown) and programs and events run by Blacktown City Council. We'll plan outings around your interests, and go further afield when you're ready.

Can a support worker help me catch the train from Marayong?

Yes. Travelling together from Marayong until the trip feels familiar is a common community participation goal, and can lead to travelling independently.

Can I choose what activities I do?

Yes. Community participation is built around what you want to do, not a fixed program.

Are entry fees and tickets covered by the NDIS?

Usually not. The NDIS generally funds the support worker's time, while activity costs like tickets and memberships are paid by you.
