VisAbility is proud to be a Community Sponsor of the 2025 Australian Access Awards, hosted by the Centre for Accessibility Australia.

Celebrating innovation and leadership in digital accessibility, the Awards will highlight the achievements of organisations and individuals who are breaking barriers in digital inclusion. It’s a chance to recognise the creativity and commitment behind accessible design, and to honour the impact it has on how people engage with technology every day.

We’re also delighted that our own Accessibility expert, Vithya Vijaykumare, will serve once again on the judging panel. Vithya reviewed websites and apps from Government, Business, and Not-for-Profit organisations, marking her third time as a judge. With recognition as Accessibility Advocate of the Year 2023 and induction into the Hall of Fame, she brings invaluable expertise and passion to the Awards.

At VisAbility, accessibility is at the heart of what we do. Supporting the Awards reflects our commitment to building a more inclusive digital future.

BLIND LOVE AUSTRALIA - casting call

Casting applications are now open for a brand-new documentary series in development, Blind Love Australia.

The producers of Blind Love Australia are looking for single blind and vision impaired West Australians in their 20s – 40s who are ready to put themselves out there in the search for love.

Based on the PBS web series, Blind Love, the series will follow six blind and vision impaired Australians in their quest for love. With the support of family and friends, each is determined to find "the one". Each participant seeks to be seen and understood for who they truly are. They don’t want pity, they want meaningful, lasting relationships.

Blind Love Australia will be a fun, warm, candid, and uplifting series that will challenge stereotypes, and debunk myths about what it means to be blind. Their goal is to amplify voices from a population that is often overlooked and showcase the lives of participants authentically beyond their vision impairment.

As part of the ongoing celebrations to mark International White Cane Day, clients of VisAbility had an exclusive guided tour of Optus Stadium. Our staff met with most of the group at our offices opposite Victoria Park train station last Saturday morning and then journeyed to Optus Stadium by train to meet up with the rest of the crew. The group then navigated the outside of the Stadium to Gate D, where they joined in on a guided tour with tour guide Bruce. It was a great day out and the group asked lots of questions about Optus Stadium and its capacity and behind the scenes secrets.

We’re bursting with pride as we celebrate Kane Perris, VisAbility staff member and client, for his record-breaking achievements at the 2025 UCI Para Cycling Track World Championships in Rio de Janeiro! 🥇

In a stunning comeback 18 months after a devastating crash on the same track, Kane returned with purpose, and left with 1 gold medal, 2 silver medals, 2 world records, and 1 world championship title... absolutely phenomenal work!

Kane and pilot Luke Zaccaria stormed the Tandem Team Sprint, setting a new world record of 49.288 seconds and claiming the world championship title. Kane also secured silver in both the Time Trial and Sprint events, rounding out an incredible week with three podium finishes.

This achievement is about more than the medals - it’s a story of resilience, teamwork, and redemption. Kane’s own words say it best: "18 months ago, this track took everything from us after a heavy crash. This year, we came back on a mission for redemption… to come away with 3 podiums this week is truly special."

Kane, your determination and grit inspire us all. Congratulations from everyone at VisAbility, we’re truly honoured to be part of your journey. 👏

Take a journey through sound, touch, and vision. 🌿

Earlier this year, blind artist Tony Sarre and creative collaborator Lincoln MacKinnon ventured across Peru. They trekked the Andes, dove into the Amazon, and connected with communities where blindness is part of everyday life. All to gather stories, textures, and sounds that celebrate resilience, creativity, and connection.

Now, they’re inviting you to experience the first glimpse of their inclusive exhibition, toParan - a sensory-rich collection of tactile 2.5D prints, immersive soundscapes, and visual works.

Be part of the creative process! You’ll have the chance to touch, see, and hear these works-in-progress, and to offer valuable feedback that will help shape the exhibition’s accessibility and inclusivity.

📍 Fremantle Arts Centre
📅 10am on Thursday 30th October

Today, our executive team, including CEO Anna Presser and COO Felicity Beaulieu, had the pleasure of hosting a delegation of seven ophthalmic academics from the Universitas Indonesia at our Victoria Park facilities.

The visit was coordinated by Bill Morgan from Lions Eye Institute and offered a valuable opportunity to exchange insights across borders.

Our guests enjoyed a comprehensive site tour and an engaging presentation from our specialist Vision Clinicians, including an Orthoptist, Occupational Therapist, and Orientation and Mobility Specialist, who showcased the unique nature of vision services provided by VisAbility and the EverAbility Group.

The delegation was particularly impressed by the scale and reach of our services, and our strong focus on promoting independence and participation for people with low vision and blindness. Many of the aids and equipment in our Resource Centre, such as the white mobility cane, were new to them, highlighting the potential for knowledge-sharing and innovation.

We look forward to building on this new relationship and contributing to enhanced clinical capability in the Vision sector in Indonesia.
