OUR JOURNEY
Resilience, Passion, and Purpose
District 360 was founded in 2019 by Tanya Johnston, an events and entertainment professional with corporate experience both in Australia and overseas. The business began with a simple but powerful idea: helping a group of participants attend the Fatboy Slim Festival — an inclusive experience that sparked a movement #D360Squad.
In late 2023, like many small NDIS providers, we faced financial challenges due to delayed funding and other factors. We entered Voluntary Administration in December 2023 and returned to full operations under a Deed of Company Arrangement (DOCA) in March 2024. This process made us stronger, more focused, and even more committed to delivering consistent, high-quality support.
Led by Experience and Heart
Meet Belle, General Manager
In January 2025, District 360 proudly appointed Belle as General Manager — a familiar and trusted face within our organisation and the broader community.
Belle brings over 10 years of experience in aged care, a strong foundation in customer service, and five years of hands-on experience across every key area of the NDIS, including intake, service delivery, rostering, compliance, and participant engagement.
But Belle’s leadership is more than professional — it’s personal.
Growing up, Belle witnessed firsthand the challenges faced by people living with disability. These early life experiences shaped her deep understanding of the importance of quality support, respectful communication, and inclusive communities. Her journey gives her a unique empathy and drive to ensure that every participant is truly seen, heard, and supported to live life on their own terms.
Over the years, Belle has worked in almost every role within District 360. This ground-up knowledge makes her a strong, present, and practical leader who leads by doing — not just directing.
She is known for being:
-
Compassionate but clear
-
Fair but firm
-
Deeply committed to doing the right thing, even when it's not the easy thing
Under Belle’s guidance, every referral is handled with care, every service is delivered with dignity, and every participant is supported with the respect they deserve.
MEET OUR FOUNDER
From corporate boardrooms to community change – a story of resilience, leadership, and purpose.
While no longer involved in the day-to-day operations, Tanya Johnston remains an active force behind District 360 — guiding the company’s values, strategic direction, and community impact. Her journey is one of lived experience, bold leadership, and an unwavering belief in creating inclusive opportunities for people living with disability.
Born in Australia to a migrant parent, Tanya faced hardship early in life and became homeless as a teenager. At just 18, she began her corporate career and quickly rose through the ranks — working directly with CEOs in Sydney who saw her potential and empowered her to lead high-level projects. This support opened doors internationally, and by her early 20s, she was managing operations across borders.
Tanya went on to spend 10 years in Vietnam, where she held a senior leadership role with Nielsen, a Top 4 global market research firm. There, she managed HR operations across over 1,100 employees and oversaw talent strategies across Southeast Asia.
In 2012, Tanya made a bold pivot — leaving corporate life to follow her entrepreneurial spirit. By 2013, she had launched a successful events and entertainment company in Vietnam, where she:
-
Promoted Disney Live to the country not once, but twice
-
Organised Charity Polo Cups involving Royal Families
-
Supported and managed local artists under the Universal Music banner
Her work combined large-scale impact with grassroots heart — a balance she would carry into her next chapter.
By 2017, Tanya had returned to Australia and shifted her focus to the disability sector in Australia, initially helping service providers register under the NDIS. She later took on a State Relationship Manager role with NDSP, further strengthening her insight into participant needs, provider gaps, and policy frameworks.
In 2019, Tanya was awarded a "Boost Your Local Workforce" grant, which helped her establish District 360 — an NDIS-registered provider built on the foundations of compassion, inclusion, and community-first thinking.
A Vision That Hasn’t Changed
From music festivals to meaningful daily routines, Tanya’s vision remains clear:
“Everyone deserves to live their best life — and it’s our job to make that possible.”
As a mother of three adult daughters, Tanya continues to support District 360 in the background — using her national and international networks to open doors, uphold integrity, and ensure the company remains guided by compassion, inclusion, and real-world impact.
