Friday 12 December 2025 marked a wonderful day at Albert Park Lake, where we proudly delivered our All-Abilities Day in partnership with Rowing Victoria and Paddle Victoria, in support of the International Day of People with Disability on 3 December.
 
It was inspiring to see people of all ages, genders, and abilities out on the water, actively participating and enjoying our sports. The event showcased the inclusive nature of our waterways and we hope it encouraged many to discover — or rediscover — the joy of being on the water in Victoria.
 
One volunteer captured the spirit of the day perfectly, saying they would “volunteer every day” after witnessing the happiness and sense of achievement of those taking part.
 
A sincere thank you to all volunteers and participants who contributed their time and enthusiasm to make the day such a memorable and successful celebration of inclusion.
