We’re thrilled to announce that the Able Australia Deafblind Camp is returning in 2026.
Thanks to the support of The Lionel & Yvonne Spencer Trust and the Olver-Carlyle Charitable Foundation we have secured funding to bring back this important event.
The Deafblind camp is more than just a getaway; it’s a celebration of community, identity, and connection. A space where Deafblind people from across Australia can come together, be themselves, and enjoy meaningful tailored activities planned by the community themselves.
Committee members will receive a gift card per meeting as thanks for their contribution.
📅 Camp dates: 15–17 April 2026
📍 Location: Camp Oasis (VIC)
💲 Cost: $250 (includes accommodation, food, and activities)

🗨️ I was pleased to be on the Camp Committee working with Bec and the team to ensure it was the best Deafblind Camp yet. Bec led with a co-design approach with the deafblind community at every stage of camp planning and management. She ensured the Deafblind Camp welcomed deafblind people from across Australia. – Alex Sar, Deafblind Camp Committee Member 2024
