A few of our Heelers are looking forward to a packed day in Greater Shepparton tomorrow with AUS Paralympic Team - visiting two schools, connecting with RumbalaraFNC and training with the local w/c ballers to celebrate IDPwD 💪💪🙌🙌


Huge thanks to Basketball Victoria for loaning us their wheelchairs to make our joint visit with AUS Paralympic Team to Greater Shepparton on Yorta Yorta Country possible last week! Check out those smiles on the ‘wheelchair train’ 😍 #inclusion #parasport #allabilities #celebratedifference

Huge thank you to @KenWyattMP for recognising and supporting the important work our Red Dust Heelers program is doing with AUS Paralympic Team to break down barriers to inclusion in Para sport for Indigenous Australians 🙏



We are overwhelmed by support of 100+ orgs signed on to an open letter calling on next Government to maintain the Indigenous Legal Assistance Program for #JusticeByUs! NATSILS welcomes commitments from @markdreyfusQCMP & Nick McKim to retain ILAP. MR: bit.ly/2PeX1mB

This is the first of a series of posters in which we will celebrate the achievement of Indigenous athletes with disabilities. Because, in the words of filmmaker Tony Briggs - “If you can’t see it, you can’t dream it...so how can you be it?” ❤️💛🖤 #RepresentationMatters


Huge thanks to South East Melbourne Phoenix , Hawthorn FC and Australian Indigenous Basketballl for joining us in delivering what was a magic day of celebrating ability, diversity and inclusion ❤️ Outback Academy @nwbl_aus
