For Immediate Release
Sydney, NSW – 1 February 2021 – Hope and Care, Bankstown-based National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) service provider, is proud to announce their corporate membership into the Canterbury-Bankstown Chamber of Commerce (CBCC).
Hope and Care is an NDIS provider whose mission is to provide the best possible health, lifestyle and other supports to our NDIS participants to bring them the highest level of independence possible.

‘It is truly an honour to have this membership as I love serving my local community, and the CBCC is supportive of local businesses in so many different ways. Many businesses have been forced to close their doors owing to the COVID-19 pandemic and I am sure that many business owners have felt alone, if not abandoned, over the past 12 months or so. But the Canterbury Bankstown Chamber of Commerce has been unwavering in its support of local businesses and I commend them highly for this,’ said Mona Salem, co-founder and director of Hope and Care.
