About

Harry, the namesake of Harry’s Help Disability Support is the son of Tracy and Peter, our Founders. Harry suffered a complex Acquired Brain Injury in early childhood and was later diagnosed in adolescence with a rare genetic condition further impacting his development and subsequent disability.

Harry was one of the first participants in Sydney transitioned from the Ageing Disability and Home Care (ADHC) scheme to the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS).  The transitional journey was not an easy one to navigate; leading to multiple reviews, appeals and finally the Administrative Appeals Tribunal (AAT).

What became very apparent to Tracy through her journey with Harry, was the lack of guidance, support and understanding within the NDIS, its providers, and people accessing the scheme. 

Seeking to improve the outcomes of others accessing the NDIS; Tracy transitioned from teaching into the disability sector as an NDIS Specialist Support Coordinator, drawing on her professional knowledge and lived experience to adopt a dignified and authentic, person-centred approach to the implementation of NDIS supports.

The evolution of this journey has been the development of a culture within Harry’s Help – Support Coordination Team that is focused on providing high-quality, person-centred supports!  

Support… your way!
