As 2025 comes to a close, we’re feeling incredibly grateful 💙🩷🤍

2025 brought a new HQ, new memories and big growth.

Every day we had gym sessions, gratitude journaling and coffees with the legends at .deli, key life skill learning modules, shopping runs, prepping, making and eating lunch together, and the boys fave part, cleaning.

We experienced so much as a group, we had 3 basketball teams, we went bowling, we attended live sport, watched the , the , watched and played at half time of the WNBL, attended the , we celebrated birthdays weekly, had monthly dinners at that became a highlight of every month, we took part in and raised nearly $8,000 for the and we were even on TV with and

40+ staff. Over 80 legends supported.

But the best part will always be the growth of every individual — key life skills, confidence, independence and friendships and connection that will last a lifetime.

We’re so proud of the boys, so grateful for the support of our community and what 2025 has been…

and we’re very excited for what 2026 will bring.

Happy New Year to everyone from Buddiup. 🎆💙

The Friday crew finishing up the final Step Up program for 2025.

We want to thank everyone who has been a part of our programs this year. To our boys — we are so incredibly proud of the effort you’ve put in, the progress you’ve made toward your goals, and the skills, friendships and connections you’ve built along the way 💪🤝

We also want to sincerely thank our families, supporters, businesses, allied health professionals, and everyone who has supported us and the wider Buddiup community throughout 2025. Your trust, encouragement, and belief in what we do means more to us than we can ever properly put into words ❤️

It’s now time for a well-earned break, but we’ll be back on January 5th, ready to kickstart 2026 and build on the skills learned, friendships grown, and the fun had 🎉🚀

Today we celebrate International Day of People with Disability, and we do it with the best cupcakes by !

We celebrate everyone who lives, shows, and embraces life, and who helps create a world where true inclusion is possible.

“Fostering disability-inclusive societies for advancing social progress.” is this years theme.

This theme reminds us that we all have a role to play in removing barriers, creating opportunities, and making sure everyone can fully participate in all parts of life.

Thank you to the Geelong community and local businesses who continue to open doors and support inclusion. Let’s keep building a society where everyone belongs and everyone gets the same opportunity to live their best life!

P.S. Stick around for the speech by Clem at the end of the video!! Great work Clem.
