NDIS Autism Shake-Up Explained & Virgin’s ‘Flight to Nowhere’

27 minutes

In this episode of AbiliTV we’re diving into stories of inclusion, advocacy and inspiration from across Australia.

Virgin Australia: Imagine boarding a plane but never leaving the ground? Virgin Australia and Adelaide Airport’s ‘Try Before You Fly’ program is helping people with disabilities experience every part of the journey — from check-in to boarding, in a safe, supportive way.

NDIS Autism Overhaul: The Federal Government’s proposed overhaul could exclude children with mild to moderate autism from the NDIS. CEO of Autism Awareness Australia, Nicole Rogerson, joins us to unpack what this means for families and what’s next.

The Sunshine Troupe Story + Performance: From the Sunshine Coast, this incredible performing arts group is breaking barriers and inspiring communities through passion, inclusion and excellence. Watch their exclusive in-studio performance of “Dog Days Are Over” by Florence + The Machine.

Special Guest Host: We’re joined on the desk by disability advocate and AbiliTV regular Breanna Medcalfe!
