What do you mean funding for nappies? If you're struggling maybe call St Vinnies or the Salvos, they should be able to help.

You can get funding through Medicare scheme for kids with special needs (not toilet trained after 5 years of age I think it is)

I don't know exactly details but a friend was recently talking about it. I Googled it the other day and from memory it was the incontinence scheme?

It's the incontinence nurse from local community centre but it's usually if your child has a diagnosed problem from what I know and they help your child before they fund nappies.

Thanks, I asked the incontinence nurse (the only one we have) and she was quite rude about it.
