The Australian Sporting Alliance for people with a disability is a collaboration of the nine Sporting Organisations including: Blind Sports Australia, Disability Sports Australia, Deaf Sports Australia, Disability Wintersports Australia, Paralympics Australia, Riding for the disabled Australia, Special Olympics Australia, Sport Inclusion Australia, Transplant Australia and its purpose it is to collaborate, advocate and facilitate inclusive sport and physical activity for people with a disability. The vision of the ASAPD is to improve the lives of Australians living with a disability using sport as the medium.

Sport Inclusion Australia, formerly AUSRAPID, is a national sporting organisation established in 1986 to assist the inclusion of people with an intellectual disability into the mainstream community using sport as the medium. Sport Inclusion Australia has worked within the Australian sporting sector with outstanding success and is proud of the increasing numbers of sporting organisations and clubs taking responsibility for inclusion with the focus on ability and based on social inclusion principles. My role is to liaise with mainstream sporting organisations to assist with the inclusion of programs and opportunities for potential participants with a disability with the focus on what an individual can do. It is about sport, it is about ability and it is about choice.

I was Chief Executive of the Global Games Sports Company which successfully conducted the INAS Global Games in October 2019. Over 1000 athletes from 48 countries competed in 10 sports showcasing elite sport for athletes with an intellectual impairment. The Games were conducted by National and State Sporting organisations and highlighted the power of sport to deliver social inclusion - challenging perceptions, changing attitudes and strengthening communities both locally and globally.
