We want to give a huge thank you to 79 Exons for organising such a fun and festive event we’re feeling very grateful to have shared last weekend together celebrating🎄

We had an incredible time at this year’s Christmas party. Shared some laughs over great food before heading over to Glitter Pines which was amazing, and it was awesome to see the kids light up with Joy. The kids were stoked with their Christmas gifts provided by 79 Exons!🎊

It was great to see so many happy faces and to catch up with everyone before the holidays. We want to wish everyone a safe and happy holiday season and we can’t wait to see you all in the new year!🎁

🙌🏻 Services Highlight 🙌🏻

We wanted to share a win from some of our Capacity Building services this week! 🫶

Thomas has been working with one of our 19 year old participants with Duchenne who has been keen to become a clothing seller.

Thomas developed a structured weekly program where he can launch and manage his own Depop shop, backed by his team of support workers. Each week, he will curate items to post, identify pricing, respond to offers, track his income, and update the page regularly - building capacity for running his own self-employed business!

They launched his Depop shop this week and posted their first listings - not even an hour after launch, they already received an offer 👕 🔥

We are proud of the work going into this and can’t wait to see this meaningful interest turn into something more. Watch this space - we hope to share the shop for everyone to check out once the full collection is live!

Spin Kids Hits Semaphore! ☀️🎠

We had such a fun time out and about with the Spin Kids crew a few weekends ago!

The group kicked off with a sweet treat at Yochi for some frozen yoghurt (always a winner 🍓🍫), before heading down to the jetty for a walk with a view since the sun was shining. We wrapped things up with a spin on the Semaphore Carousel, the kids jumped on without much hesitation, while some of the adults might have looked slightly more nervous 😅

It was a great day filled with sunshine, laughter, and plenty of smiles. Big thanks to everyone who came along and made it such a great outing!

The Young Ones Spin Kids had an awesome day out yesterday exploring the Botanic Gardens doing a scavenger hunt!

There were all sorts of treasures to find — from colourful flowers and giant leaves to birds, bats, and ancient trees. Everyone got involved, ticking off their lists and spotting all sorts of surprises along the way. Even the grown-ups got involved!

It was a great way to spend time together, enjoy the sunshine, and have a laugh. Thanks to everyone who came along and made it such a fun day.

We’re so proud to share something very special from one of our community legends – Charlie, who has created his very own recipe book!

As part of his final school project, he decided to collect his family’s treasured recipes and turn them into a cookbook that could be shared with others – especially those living with DMD or similar challenges. With support from DMD Consulting, Charlie thoughtfully included his own tips and tricks for cooking that offers practical guidance for others who may be navigating fatigue, mobility limitations, or fine motor difficulties.

Check it out here -

A recipe book from one of our participants. Charlie, a 17-year-old living with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy, created this book as part of his Year 12 Studies. With a deep appreciation for his family’s recipes and a passion for food, Charlie wanted to make sure these treasured meals were preserved,

World Duchenne Awareness Day 2025 - Thank You! ❤️

As many will know, we recently had such a special day celebrating World Duchenne Awareness Day 2025 with our community & we wanted to share a little snapshot from the event! 🎥

Thanks to lots of hard work from all of our team and our close friend and superstar Physio Kerrie over at Reach for the Stars Therapy Services, we were able to bring everyone together for a big family BBQ and afternoon of connection, laughter, and plenty of food😊🍩

It was such a joy to celebrate, not just to raise awareness for Duchenne & Becker, but to bring our wider neuromuscular community that we’re so lucky to be a part of together. Even though we may not provide services to everyone who came along, we want you to know how much we appreciated seeing every single one of you there.

And yes - we definitely loved the sea of red 😆❤️ Everyone looked fantastic in true WDAD spirit. We would love to hear from you all about the day; whether there were any favourite moments or memories, or ideas for next year's celebration, feel free to share in the comments below!

Thank you again for supporting this special day with us 🎈
