About us
At Bunji, we do disability services differently
Our Story
Celebrating connection is not just part of our name – it is our guiding philosophy.
We believe when people are connected to their community, they live happier, healthier and more fulfilling lives.
It is our job to ensure that people living with disabilities and their carers are connected to the personalised support they need.
Bunji translates, literally, to 'mate' or 'close friend' in the Warlpiri language.
We wanted a name that conveyed our vision in a single word. Bunji reflects our organisation's renewed focus on community, friendship, kindness and connection - all necessary ingredients for living a fulfilled life. We also wanted the name of the organisation to be intrinsically connected to the cultural ethos: our clients are our friends first and foremost. They are part of our family.
Bunji was created out of a need we saw in our local community.
We knew that many people accessing services under the NDIS, and their carers, were disconnected from their community and individualised supports. For far too many people, supports are fractured, disjointed and disconnected.
Bunji was created to redefine what it means to be connected and supported - not just by an individual but by a whole community.
Being connected to things enable people to take advantage of every opportunity available to them - whatever that might be - and be supported to achieve their goals and aspirations.
Why Bunji?
You will be involved in creating your support plan and we will support you to achieve your goals.
You get to choose the days and times of your sessions, and we can help you maximise your support budget to get the most support possible.
You're in control the whole time.
What does this mean?
It means more personalised support and more hours of care and exceptional customer service. We also use technology to streamline the way we work, that means we spend less time doing administrative work, which equals more time spent with you.
