We can create such a huge amount of opportunity and doors of possibility for the people in our community. If we only look thoroughly, we will see how much more help we can provide especially to vulnerable and at-risk young people who are on the brink of giving up to societal distress, due to physical disabilities. Create New Future for young people by supporting non-governmental organizations like Youngcare.
Help build a more inclusive community, and an empowering industry, government, and community to work together and challenge how society views disability. Whether running or walking, join the Budgie Bolt 2023, Australia’s most inclusive 5km event.
Be brave and wheel, walk or run 5km in your budgie smugglers or your most extravagant red costume to raise funds and awareness for Youngcare, in support of young Australians with high physical support needs.
You don’t have to be an athlete… just keen to create freedom, dignity and choice for young Australians with high physical support needs being left behind. Every young person, regardless of their care needs, deserves the freedom to choose where they live, who they live with and how they live their lives. It’s up to all of us to make sure that happens.
No matter how uncomfortable you might feel running 5kms in your Budgie Smugglers or red get-up, it’s not nearly as uncomfortable as the life a young person in aged care lives.
So be bold and Bolt for Youngcare!
