Our Story
Founded by Laurence Hough who is deeply embedded in the deaf community, Charis Plan Manager was born out of a desire to address the unique challenges faced by NDIS participants. With firsthand experience navigating the difficulties of the NDIS, we recognised the need for a service provider that not only understood the workings of the scheme but also embraced deaf culture and communication.
Our team is comprised of individuals with a variety of backgrounds, but we all share one common trait - a genuine passion for making a difference in the lives of NDIS participants. From Deaf individuals who bring invaluable insight into our operations to NDIS workers who bridge the gap between the Deaf and hearing worlds, our team is united in our commitment to providing exceptional service with empathy and understanding.

Our Values
- Accessibility: We are committed to ensuring that our services are accessible to all, regardless of communication preferences or abilities.
- Empowerment: We believe in empowering NDIS participants to take control of their finances and make informed decisions about their support needs.
- Integrity: Transparency, honesty, and accountability are at the core of everything we do. We strive to build trust and foster meaningful relationships with our clients, families, and partners.
- Communication: We are committed to keep you informed and updated during the plan. We use several methods of communication through email, texting, video call and national relay service.
At Charis Plan Manager, we take a client-centred approach to plan management. We understand that every individual has unique goals, preferences, and challenges, which is why we adapt our services to meet the needs of each client. Whether you're looking for budget plan, payment processing, or working with your support coordination, we're here to guide you every step of the way.
