NDIS support, in plain English.

NewHope Abilities · Registered NDIS provider

A Melbourne disability support provider helping people with daily routines, life skills and getting out into the community. The website had to feel warm and steady, and be easy for anyone to read and act on.

The challenge

People looking for disability support rarely arrive alone. It might be the participant, a parent, a carer or a support coordinator doing the searching, and each comes with different questions. Most provider websites answer them with registration group names and funding jargon. NewHope Abilities needed a site that a nervous first-time reader could follow, and that a busy coordinator could trust.

The approach

Swap the clinical blues for sunshine yellow and soft pastel cards, so the site feels like a friendly conversation. Set the body copy in Atkinson Hyperlegible Next, a typeface made for readers with low vision. Then write every page in plain English: what a service means, what it could look like on an ordinary day, and what gets agreed before support starts.

Trust, shown early

Values first, registration close behind.

Families choosing a provider are deciding who to let into their home. So straight after the hero, four short promises set the tone: dignity, independence, reliability and community. Further down, the NDIS registration gets a section of its own, linked to the Practice Standards that guide the work.

Ten services, each explained the same way.

Nobody should need a registration code to ask for help. Each of the ten services has its own page built from one template: what the support means, how NewHope can help, an everyday example of what it could look like, and the things that get talked through first. Every page is also clear about what the service does not cover.

Help before the first call

100 guides for the questions people are already asking.

Choosing a provider, comparing quotes, reading a service agreement, preparing for a first visit. The guide library answers these in short, practical pieces across ten topics, each with its own colour, plus a search box for anything more specific. Every guide can be printed and links to official information where it matters.

The enquiry

The form asks who is getting in touch.

A participant, a family member and a support coordinator need different replies, so the form asks which one you are. Choosing a service is optional, with “Not sure yet” as the default. Error messages say how to fix the problem, people are reminded to leave out medical records, and every enquiry gets an email acknowledgement.
