It's been busy here at Ability Heroes with the app soon to be launched and continued conversations with inspiring and motivating people. We are so thankful for all the incredible support we have received so far. It's exciting times ahead!

Let's find out a little more about what's been going on...

App launch: It’s not long before the Ability Heroes app launches. We are currently in the testing stages and seeing such promising feedback that we can’t wait to share it with you all soon! If you want to find out more about the project, head over to this page on our website: www.abilityheroes.org.au/app/

Support Strategy: We headed to the offices of the Chamber of Commerce and Industry WA (CCIWA) this week for some insightful chats. One of the main topics was growing our support and sponsorship base and what a positive community impact the project continues to have.

Last weekend, we headed to @ for the All Abilities Expo. It was a fantastic day, not only celebrating inclusivity, accessibility, and community but bringing together the incredible resources, learnings, and support out there, helping empower people of all abilities.

It was such a valuable day, speaking with many of you and being able to showcase the impact Ability Heroes is making, and will continue to make, as we progress further with our app.

MCCC Melville Cockburn Chamber of Commerce

Last Thursday, we attended Minds of All Kinds Event, 'Different, Not Difficult'. The saying, 'a picture is worth a thousand words,' couldn't ring more true right now. Looking back through photos of the night just highlighted how strong and embracing this community is.

The night gave all a safe space to listen, ask and connect. We saw outdated narratives challenged and a light shone on the strengths, creativity, and diversity of neurodivergent individuals. We were proud to be part of the audience, listening to such inspiring individuals, Yvette Hewett & Samara Love. A huge thanks to them and to Emily Kendall for welcoming us to this community.

We look forward to future events!
