Tips and guides for taking care of your mental, psychical and emotional health when living a disability.
Health and wellbeing when living with disability
Looking after physical, mental and emotional health is important for everyone, so we’ve pulled together our resources on health and wellbeing for people with disability on this page.
The topics cover physical activity and eating healthily, information about mental health and how important it is to look after your mental health, as well as the supports you can access through the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) for health and daily living.
The idea behind this is that children are growing and developing at a quick pace and need support as soon as possible. It is also based on the idea that with early intervention children may not need the NDIS when they are older.
Scroll down the page to see what topics you can read about or use the jump to section to go directly to the articles you want to read.
