What People are Saying
-
“The expo is for us, because we love to connect with people and this is a better place: this is just a grand place where you can meet with a lot of people, you can make a lot of connections and it's a very big shout out for our company when we get to show what exactly we are providing and what we are offering.”
SHARIA, BLUESTAR HOME CARE SERVICES -
“The expo is definitely very good exposure and a very good environment: Open space, meeting different participants. There are heaps of participants asking how to apply for NDIS and also asking what services we can provide. So, we got to help the participants.”
BLOSSOM COMMUNITY CARE -
“The expo is beautiful! Lots of people are coming who are desperate (for NDIS solutions). Now I can understand that Brisbane needs lots of services. We'll be here soon - our office will be here (in Brisbane) soon.”
KURIAN, A BETTER LIFE HOME CARE SERVICES -
“It feels like there's so much more, so many more providers here this year, and it's really good to see so many different providers providing all sorts of different supports. It's been amazing, great! Well done guys. Love it.”
CHRIS AND CHERYL, ASPIRE HUB -
“We really, really love this particular expo. There's something that you guys do that's really special. I think that whole developing of community just shines through and that's the most important thing for us: We're about community all the time, about making sure that our young people are connecting in community and supported and so, we can feel that in this kind of space and we love being a part of it, so, we are really grateful to be here.”
ALLISON, THE ORCA PROJECT, WESLEY MISSION -
“It's been a great experience for us because this is the first year participating in this. We tried last year, but we just were too late. So, we're looking forward to more years, actually!”
SUPPORT CARE ANGELS -
“It's been so busy we have been struggling to keep up, honestly. The great thing about this expo is that we have everything under one roof here. People can come and just explore all different aspects of services, specialised goods etc, so, it’s just great for the people coming to the expo. So, it's just great for the people coming to the expo. We will definitely be back as a major sponsor next year.”
VERN POWELL, HOLISTIC HORIZONS -
“It's been such an amazing turnout. I've been so amazed even just by the mood of everybody here. Everyone is so welcoming and so excited about the different options here available. All the exhibitors have been so friendly. It's been just a wonderful experience so far.”
SYDNEY, BRAINCARE -
“Oh, it's amazing. It's so refreshing to see a consistent stream of people coming through… every one I've attended it's just getting bigger and better as we go. So well done. Great job. And we love being here. It's been very busy and you know we just love seeing familiar faces and helping people get the support though they need, or at least give them information to get the support they need.”
SULETT, AFFORD -
“It's been awesome, we've met so many great people, and a lot of participants have come up to say hello. We've actually found a lot of people coming over just to ask generalised questions. Sometimes they're just not quite sure on who to actually talk to, so they've come, taken a seat and we've just been having a bit of a chat about what supported independent living actually is, and what short term accommodation is as well, because some people are not quite sure what the difference is. It's been great really talking to the participants and their guardians as well around that.”

service providers
We have invited and will be showcasing a diverse range of exhibitors:
- Over 15,000 Service Providers, Professionals, Capacity Building Experts, Therapy, Early Intervention and Disability Focused Aged and Child Care options Australia-wide have been invited to exhibit.
- Up to 200 exhibitor spaces will be available and there will be a diverse range to find that perfect fit option for you, your loved ones, or those you support or work with.
- There will also be a focus on resource options, equipment and therapeutic services.
- The more diverse the range of Service Providers, the more valuable and attractive the expo is for Participants and visitors. We put lots of work into inviting as many as possible to cover 10 000 square meters of expo space!
Want to sit down and talk to some of the service providers over the two days of Expo 2024?
- We don't do just tables and pamphlets - there are plenty of spaces to stop and take your time
- There are meeting spaces to catchup one on one with providers. Arrange a sit-down and talk to some potential Providers. To find that perfect fit for you.
- Participating Providers with capacity will have 20-30 minute appointment times. Attendees can book on either of the two days to find out more in a safe and no-pressure setting.
- Traveling around having meetings with different Providers usually takes time. Meet a few on the same day and make it a little easier to compare and find the right ones for you.
This might be your chance to find that great option you have been looking for!
