Building Friendships

03/12/2025

Today, Building Friendships celebrates International Day of People with Disability - Australia (IDPwD).
Over the last seven years, the Building Friendships (BF) Crew has grown to more than 100 participants. We are incredibly proud of everything our BF Crew has achieved, and we will continue striving to support each person in reaching their goals and aspirations, whilst they continue to develop new goals for the future.

This year’s theme is “Fostering disability-inclusive societies to advance social progress.”
A special highlight for us was the invitation to the BF Crew's Chloe and Will from the Honourable Hannah Beazley MLA, Minister for Disability Services and Klasey Hirst MLC to celebrate IDPwD at Parliament House. It was a wonderful day that recognises the outstanding achievements of people with disability and reinforced the ongoing importance of positive social change.
We can’t wait to see the bright and exciting future ahead!
