In June 2023, Mable launched a fresh brand campaign across Australia. As we set out on this journey, our aim is to stand behind every individual’s right to their own independence, whether they are an older Australian, a person with disability or a support worker.

On Mable, it’s our mission to empower clients and support workers so they can confidently say ‘Mable is my kind of independence.’ 

But what is independence? 

As well-known women’s rights activist Susan B Anthony once said, “Independence is happiness.”

Simple yet profound. Independence is the freedom to live life the way we want. It’s unique to each of us.

For Penny, independence means being able to go hiking whenever she wants. For Carol, it means living in her own home and being able to live her day to day life as she wants. 

For Samantha, independence means having a home that suits her support needs. For Corey, it’s about attending his swim lessons and volunteering at church.

For independent support worker Ben, it means being the boss of his small business on Mable. 

Mable: My kind of independence

Mable clients have the freedom to choose the support workers they want to work with, and when and where they want that support.

Independent support workers on Mable have the freedom to choose their clients and hours they want to work.

At Mable, everyone can find ‘my kind of independence’.

On 4 June, Monday, we launched our brand new advertisement campaign across television, radio, billboards, print, social media and more.

Guillaume Papillon, Head of Marketing at Mable, says, “The ‘brand new’ Mable campaign reflects this ethos by truly placing people at the centre of our brand, and celebrates the uniqueness of everyone’s kind of independence."

It’s why viewers will notice in the ad campaign, we decided to feature real people from our community and not actors.

We hope everyone sees a little bit of themselves in this new campaign.

Join Mable on this new journey

We invite you to join us as Mable sets out on this new journey to continue championing independence for independent support workers, older Australians and people with disability in the community.

Navigating NDIS Mandatory Registration Together with our Business Partners
What's Next for the NDIS Mandatory Registration reforms? The NDIS Commission has now made it possible for Mable to register specifically under the new class 0137 - NDIS digital platforms. NDIS digital platforms must comply with any new conditions of their registration by 1 January 2027. This change is part of broader reforms to strengthen quality, safety and oversight across the disability sector. These changes give our business partners confidence. Confidence that you can be sure Business Solutions by Mable is a critical part of a sustainable NDIS. We welcome these reforms because they recognise our high-quality and safeguarding standards. We have always prioritised these areas. That being said, we are actively adapting our systems to the proposed new requirements to ensure that Mable remains a useful tool to support your business needs, during and after regulatory changes. How are we managing the registration process? Mable plans to apply for registration as an NDIS digital platfor

Preventing everyday harm in support work
As a support worker, you want your clients to feel safe, respected and supported. You may already think carefully about how to provide safe support and prevent serious incidents. But harm is not always obvious. Sometimes, small everyday actions, words or assumptions can affect a client in ways you may not have intended or noticed at the time. This is sometimes referred to as everyday harm. Over time, these small moments can build up and may affect how respected, heard, in control or safe your client feels. The newly launched Everyday Harm website brings together practical resources to help support workers and organisations build safer, more respectful support relationships. These resources were developed through Australian Research Council studies, including interviews with people with disability about their experiences. Mable was proud to be involved in this project as an Industry and Community Partner organisation. We hope these resources help you better understand everyday harm
