NDIS Consumables Budget

Consumables is a support category inside the core supports budget. It covers everyday items that get used up over time, from continence products to low-cost aids for daily living. Because it sits within core supports, it tends to be one of the more flexible parts of a plan.

What the category is for

The category exists for regular, lower-cost items rather than one-off equipment. Where a specific item sits, and whether it draws from this category, is a question you can check against the current Support Catalogue using the support item search.

Confirming what your plan allows

Whether a particular item can be claimed depends on your individual plan, your goals, and how your funding is managed. Your plan manager or support coordinator can confirm what applies to you.
