Victoria Bridge will be lit Red to celebrate a Light Up for Inclusion - 50th Anniversary of Special Olympics Australia
For 50 years, Special Olympics Australia has been part of a global movement improving inclusion through sport for people with intellectual disability and/or autism.

All year round, we deliver Olympic-type sports training and competitions for children and adults of all ages and ability levels - from weekly local grassroots activities, to State, National and World Games. But our impact goes far beyond sport. We break down barriers, ignite confidence and build communities. We are a movement where no one is left behind, and everyone plays, competes, and thrives. As we celebrate 50 years of Special Olympics in Australia, on July 20 during the Special Olympics Global Week of Inclusion, landmarks and iconic buildings around the world will turn RED in a globa…
