About the opportunity

Help Tasmanian participants maintain practical outdoor spaces

Yirra Care connects gardening contractors with NDIS participants who need support around their homes.

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

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

However, every assignment follows a clear service scope. Therefore, extra work should not begin until Yirra Care approves it.
