WDN’s final meeting for 2024 was held on Thursday 14 November at the Civic Centre, South Morang. We had a great turn out to hear from the National Disability Insurance Agency (NDIA) who presented on the recently announced changes to the NDIS and answered questions submitted by WDN members.
A full record of the event are included in the meeting minutes and the NDIA presentation.
WDN November 2024 MinutesPDF (341.03 KB)It has been one year since WDN returned to life after a break during Covid and we had a fantastic turn out at our September meeting.
Two separate group sessions ran:
- Questions about changes to the NDIS and
- How to start a community group.
The facilitated discussions were extremely productive and we had great feedback from members.

We had a great turn out to the final WDN community meeting for the financial year, running four separate facilitated conversations on issues raised by our members:
- creating independent living and employment opportunities for young people with disability
- supporting neurodiverse families
- creating social connections for carers and
- gaps in mental health services.
New connections were made, information was exchanged and over 100 pieces of feedback were recorded by Council to support our disability policy and planning.
