On 15 July 2025, Scope (Aust) received compliance notices from the NDIS Quality and Safeguards Commission outlining areas for improvement in some of our Supported Independent Living (SIL) services.
The notices relate to specific systems and processes which are designed to improve consistency, governance and documentation. These are important matters, many of which we had identified and started addressing through our regular internal reviews. The matter does not relate in any way to the activities of our people, who do an amazing job day-in, day-out supporting our clients and their families.
The work we’ve been undertaking includes:
We continue to work closely with the NDIS Commission and we’re on track to address the matters raised within the relevant timeframe. We are committed as always to keep delivering to the high standards set by the NDIS Commission, and those we set for ourselves.
We thank our clients, families, and partners for their ongoing support as we continue this work.
Australia’s disability sector is going through some of the biggest changes we’ve seen since the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) began. Many disability support providers are talking about needing to adapt to remain sustainable, but it’s not always clear what that means for the people who rely on these services every day.
Scope has proudly reopened its newly renovated Social Connections site at Henry Street, Pakenham, unveiling a modern, inclusive space designed to support people with disability in building skills, friendships, and community connections.
Scope's Community Inclusion Team is excited to bring Inclusive Hockey back for 2026/2027, with programs running in Bendigo, South East Melbourne (Keysborough) and North West Melbourne (Parkville).
