NDIS Shopping Assistance in Brisbane, Gold Coast and Sunshine Coast

Getting the shopping done can involve more than reaching the supermarket. You might need help preparing a list, finding items, managing a busy store or carrying groceries home. At We Care Community Support Services, we provide shopping assistance guided by your preferences and disability-related needs. Whether you want someone alongside you for the weekly shop or assistance with particular steps, we discuss what would make the task more manageable. You remain involved in choosing what you buy and how you shop.

Following your budget: Helping you compare prices and keep track of planned purchases.

What does NDIS shopping assistance include?

Shopping assistance can include preparing a list, navigating shops, finding products, comparing prices, packing bags and putting groceries away. The tasks depend on your disability-related needs and agreed service arrangements. We discuss what you want help with before support begins.

Can NDIS funding pay for my groceries?

NDIS funding generally does not pay for groceries or ordinary household purchases. It may cover eligible disability-related assistance needed to complete your shopping, where this is consistent with your plan. Your shopping purchases remain separate from the cost of your support worker.

Can I choose where I shop and what I buy?

Yes, let us know which shops you prefer, the items you want and any dietary or cultural preferences. We discuss practical considerations such as accessibility, travel time and worker availability. Our role is to assist with your shopping, while respecting your choices.

Can a support worker accompany me to the supermarket?

We can discuss having a worker alongside you while you shop. Let us know whether you need assistance navigating the store, reaching items, communicating at checkout or carrying bags. Transport arrangements and any related charges must be confirmed separately before the visit.

How do I arrange shopping assistance in my area?

Call 0451 189 817 or send an enquiry with your suburb, preferred days and the assistance required. We will discuss availability across Brisbane, the Gold Coast and the Sunshine Coast, along with proposed costs and relevant funding arrangements, before you decide to proceed.
