Abilities Unleashed

Logo for Abilities Unleashed Australia. The design features three stylised human figures in dark and light green shades, each engaging in different activities: one holding a fishing rod, one in a wheelchair holding a ring overhead, and one with swim goggles also holding a ring. Below the figures is a dark green curved banner with the words “Abilities Unleashed” in bold white text, and the word “Australia” underneath in green. The logo visually represents inclusive sport and recreation.

Abilities Unleashed brings people with disability and local sporting organisations together to experience the joy of sport.

Through free community events across Australia, children and adults with disability can try different sports, meet new people and discover activities they enjoy.

By working with local clubs and sporting organisations, we’re also helping create more opportunities for people to continue taking part in their own communities.

Sporting Schools

Schools can use Sporting Schools funding to help students with disability experience Abilities Unleashed.

Through community events and in-school delivery, we’re helping schools introduce students to different sports while connecting them with local sporting opportunities.
