Everyday Support to Live Life Your Way

GIFSA can provide disability support and NDIS personal care to assist with everyday personal activities that help you live as independently as possible, at home and out in the community.

What's Included

Some of the things we can help with:

  • Getting ready for your day (showering, dressing, grooming)

  • Meal preparation and nutrition

  • Household tasks like cleaning and laundry

  • Yard care and general help around the home

  • Getting out and about, driving you places or coming with you on public transport

  • Assistance with health, fitness and getting to appointments

Why GIFSA

Our support workers are local people who are screened, trained, backed by our team and matched to your needs. Whether you need to find a support worker for general services or a specialised disability support worker, our team will help you build everyday skills and confidence, supporting you to do more for yourself over time rather than taking over.

Participant Stories

Behind every support plan is a person with their own goals and routines. Here's what everyday support looks like for one of the people we work alongside.

Greg loves trucks and Lego. After more than five years with GIFSA, he's developed greater independence, become more engaged in his daily life and discovered a new love of cooking, building confidence and new skills along the way.

My favourite thing about GIFSA is my support workers. They help me be more independent, get involved in more things and learn new skills. I've even learned to cook, and I love it!

Getting There Is Part of the Support

Everyday support often means getting to appointments, the shops or the community, so our own vehicles make a real difference here.

In a region as big as ours, reliable transport can be the difference between taking part and missing out. That is why GIFSA has invested heavily in our own vehicle fleet. Over 20 vehicles, including some that are wheelchair-accessible and modified, are built for the needs of people with disability, alongside a range of standard vehicles for participant use.

This matters in the Goldfields-Esperance, where wheelchair-compatible transport is limited and availability can be unreliable. Having our own fleet means our participants can count on getting to programs, appointments and community activities safely, comfortably and on time, wherever they need to go across the Goldfields-Esperance region.
