Franklin Square
Corner Macquarie, Davey and Elizabeth Streets
Hobart TAS 7000
Australia

Why

Join the National Day of Action to support and hear from people experiencing the depths of the cuts to the NDIS.

Massive cuts are happening all through the NDIS at the moment. NDIS are completely cutting therapy, physiotherapy and other necessary supports. 300,000 less people will be on NDIS and all participants will be reassessed.

Right now, the Australian Government is also considering reducing the growth of the NDIS. Cutting NDIS growth does not remove the need. It shifts the cost onto families, hospitals and crisis systems, where the costs are higher and often cannot be absorbed.

Rally will be:

  • Wheelchair accessible
  • Auslan interpreted
  • Family friendly
  • Drop in anytime
  • Everyone welcome
