Is an accessible kitchen covered by the NDIS in Townsville?

An accessible kitchen can be covered by the NDIS in Townsville when the modification is reasonable and necessary for the participant's disability and backed by an OT assessment. That usually means the funding case is about safe access, reach and daily function, not a general kitchen renovation. A builder quote may need to cover bench-height changes, clearance for a wheelchair, easier sink or cooktop access, joinery changes and any make-good work needed in older Townsville homes. The scope has to match the OT recommendation cleanly or approval gets messy fast. Ask whether the quote is written from the OT report, whether electrical or plumbing changes are included, and whether the price covers the full approved modification rather than just cabinetry.
