Why do you only have Partners and no members?
We believe we can deliver the best events for everyone this way.
Attendees want a fresh and vibrant event every time. That means exciting new providers from the local community. We want to give everyone the opportunity to book an event, no matter how big your business is or how small. Often the most exciting businesses in the NDIS are run by small businesses and we want them to have the opportunity to shine. Events with all large corporations taking all the tables often don't showcase the local community and favour large marketing budgets versus quality local providers.
How big are these Events?
They usually have 18 to 22 leading providers which means 18 to 22 tables. We think that this is the perfect event size. It gives attendees a great selection of providers and providers are often talked out after 2hrs.
Do I need to be NDIS registered to be part of these events?
No you don't. Everyone is welcome to come. If a participant is self managed or Plan Managed they can have services provided by non registered providers.
Are your events wheelchair accessible?
Yes wheelchair, electric scooter, assisted walker access is a key selection criteria of all our events.
Are participants welcome to attend these events?
Absolutely! After all, it's all about you!
Why aren't you holding an event in my community?
Reaching regional communities is a huge part of our mission. If you would like us to hold and event in your region please send an email telling us to: info@ableplus.net.au
I can't afford a table but have an exciting business I want to share with my local community, how do I become part of this?
We have after pay which means you can pay the table host fee in four or six weeks. Its designed to give smaller providers the opportunity to bear the cost over time, and not all in one hit.
I'm another provider or not really in the sector and just want to come and have a look, am I welcome?
For sure, providers are happy to see all sorts of people come to the events. Often the most unlikely attendee can become a referrer to one of the businesses. We are open, welcoming and inclusive. Its part of our culture.

21 days prior the event to get a refund.
7 days prior the event to get a credit for another event.
No refund or credit with less than 7 days notice.
