Over 4 million people in Australia are living with some form of disability.

That’s 1 in 5 people!

Walk in Wings by Sunshine Butterflies proudly brought to you by Cérge ‘Your Digital Concierge’ is an all-inclusive walk to celebrate all abilities in our community.

Our Vision

Walk in Wings by Sunshine Butterflies proudly brought to you by Cérge 'Your Digital Concierge' is an all-inclusive accessible 1.5km walk along the Noosa River which aims to celebrate all abilities in our community.

In 2021 we will be holding the inaugural Walk in Wings. This event is designed to promote whole community inclusivity and will unite businesses, community & sporting groups, schools and the general public from all walks of life.

Walkers will create a kaleidoscope of colour as they embrace the playfulness of life & importance of creating an all-inclusive community in their colourful butterfly wings or in purple.

We invite you to join us in breaking down barriers and elevating awareness of our neighbours and friends living with disability.

Together we can create an inclusive and accepting community for all.

Our Mission

One of the first barriers that people living with a disability face are the attitudes and mindset of others.

These barriers include stereotyping and usually assuming that people living with a disability have a poor and unhealthy quality of life. This is usually because of a lack of community understanding. Yet, in reality, people with disabilities are like everyone else, we all have our strengths and our weaknesses.

Walk in Wings focuses on creating community awareness and celebrating the wonderful and different abilities that each and every one of us has.

Walk in Wings will be an annual event which will bring the community together to break down the social and physical barriers that people living with disability face daily. Together, lets ‘Walk in Wings’ and create awareness of and celebrate people of all abilities in the community.
