About Us

Your Way Support Solutions was founded by Penny Meldrum in 2019 in Darling Downs, QLD, in response to several NDIS participants feeling unheard and dissatisfied with local services. Together with a team of talented and like-minded individuals, she established Your Way Support Solutions with a mission to ensure participants are valued and their goals prioritised. We are all dedicated to giving NDIS participants a greater voice in setting up and receiving their NDIS supports. The team in Darling Downs is now well-established, serving the Toowoomba and Southern Downs areas.

In 2022, we expanded to Western Australia, where our rapidly growing team in Perth brings a wealth of skills and experience in the NDIS field, with a particular passion for serving the Deaf Community.
