Meet Donna, the founder of GDS Plan Management Australia. 💜
Donna’s connection to the NDIS began from the participant side of the system, giving her firsthand experience of what it can be like to navigate plans, funding and supports. When she decided to turn that lived experience into something that could help others, she also completed a dual Certificate IV in Disability and Mental Health.
Today, that combination of lived experience and knowledge sits at the heart of GDS Plan Management.
Donna believes people deserve to feel heard, understood and confident when it comes to their NDIS funding and that Plan Management should feel personal, not like you’re dealing with a faceless organisation.
Outside of GDS, you’ll find Donna spending time with her family, heading to local wineries and venues for live music, or watching a movie guaranteed to make her cry. 😂
GDS Plan Management is based in Geelong and supports NDIS participants Australia-wide.
If you’re looking for a Plan Manager, or thinking about changing from your current one, you’re always welcome to have a chat with Donna and the team. Switching can be easier than you think! 💜
