Yes, Friend, Go Aussies Go!
Thank you for joining the call to Close the Gap and support equality for ALL Para - athletes.
You are helping to create a more inclusive society for people with disability
Thank you for supporting our cau se and agreeing that Para - athletes deserve the same support as able - bodied athletes
Your Paralympians need you on their side
Para-athletes face the same intense training schedule as able-bodied athletes, but they face many more barriers.
The biggest inequality affecting Paralympians is the much higher costs of competing.
- Para-athletes incur extra costs for their sport equipment, which is often customized for their sport and for their disability.
- Athletes with disability often require accessible transport and travel – which requires more planning, more logistics, more time and more expense.
- Paralympians also need to fund the support staff including guides, pilots and ramp assistants that travel and compete with them.
Donate to help get them to the Games
The road to the Paralympic Games is long, difficult, and expensive.
