Companion Card
What is it?
The Companion Card is a tool to assist organisations that charge an admission or participation fee to comply with existing anti-discrimination legislation .
The Companion Card is a wallet-sized card issued to people with a significant, permanent disability who always require a companion for attendant care support in order to participate at most community activities and venues.
The card can be presented when booking or purchasing a ticket at events and venues, provided the cardholder requires attendant care support in order to participate at that particular activity. Participating organisations will issue the cardholder with a second ticket for their companion at no charge.
