SOLVE Come and Try Days

As a result of Disability Sport & Recreation's partnership with SOLVE Disability Solutions (SOLVE), three dynamic 'come and try' days were held across Geelong, Mornington Peninsula and Ballarat.

We were pleased to see so many young people come along, try new activities and discover new things. Thank you all who played their part in making these days an absolute knockout.

For those of you who don't know, SOLVE provides Victorians and families with therapy services and assistive technology solutions to help people of all ages and abilities. This includes creating ways for people with disability to engage with sport and recreation.
