We brewed the NDIS gossip so you don’t have to. Fraudsters got served. Support workers got pay bumps. And a $2B kids’ plan has everyone talking. Psst… the SwiftyMatchy waitlist is open. Ready to lock in your perfect support match?

Little Kids, Big Plans 🎈

The federal gov announced “Thriving Kids”—a $2 billion plan to help young children with mild developmental delay or autism outside the NDIS.

  • Goal: give families early support (think check-ups and some therapy via Medicare) so not every child needs an NDIS plan.

  • Timing: planned to roll out from July 2026.

  • Promise: no child on NDIS loses supports until the new services are ready.
    Some parents are nervous (fair), but early help done right = good.

Empty Houses, Big Problem 🏠

SDA housing was meant to be a win. Right now, lots of new SDA homes are empty. Why?

  • Many were built on the city fringe—cheap land, but far from shops, doctors, community.

  • People want homes where they actually live.
    Lesson: build in the right places, with real community around.

But it’s not all doom. When SDA works, it really works.
Bruce lived in institutions for 50 years. He moved into a custom SDA apartment in the heart of the city and found independence, friends, and a whole new life. That’s the dream. Let’s do more of that.
