The Neurological Council of WA was founded in July 1992 at 320 Rokeby Road Subiaco. The Council and several affiliated organisations located there, pooled together resources and knowledge to promote the common and individual goals of their organisations within the neurological sector. The NCWA continues to work with its member organisations to promote mutual needs and interests. In July 2002, the NCWA and sixteen affiliated organisations moved into the new, purpose-built Lotteries building complex known as The Niche, housed in the area known as the Centre for Neurological Support. The NCWA manages the tenancies of the members housed at The Centre for Neurological Support.
The NCWA identified there were many neurological conditions that did not have a specialist organization to offer supports. After securing funding in 1995, the NCWA expanded its services to people with neurological conditions and their carers in the Perth metropolitan area.
