About Us

For many of us at Aspire Cairns Community, we have spent most of our adult lives working in the sport for community development space looking at ways to use sport to drive positive social outcomes. This has enabled and empowered us to understand and harness the power of sport and look beyond. Sport for Development Programs move slowly but the learnings last a lifetime.

Connect With Us

Aspire Cairns Community is ready to collaborate with community to drive emotionally connected and engaged programs to schools, sporting organizations focusing on physical and mental health and wellbeing outcomes driven through sport and play experiences.

We will be this by collaborating with community organizations at all levels and developing and delivering school aligned curriculum, workshops and presentations, pathway experiences and resources on-line and personally developed incorporating emotional literacy, connections, health and well-being and physical education activities.
