About the opportunity

Help Brisbane participants maintain safer outdoor spaces

Yirra Care connects gardeners with NDIS participants who need practical support around their homes.

For example, a participant may need regular lawn mowing, edging, trimming or general garden care.

In addition, some services may include light yard clean-up or approved green-waste removal.

However, every assignment has a clear scope. Therefore, extra work should not begin until Yirra Care confirms it.
