Core supports

Core supports is one of the three budget types recorded in a plan. It groups everyday supports together, covering things like assistance with daily activities, consumables, and transport.

Funding within core supports is built to move between the support categories inside it, which is what makes this budget type flexible compared with capital supports or capacity building.

What sits inside core supports for any individual plan follows the reasonable and necessary test, and the categories and their purposes are set out in the Support Catalogue.
