We're very pleased to see a new code of conduct implemented in Victoria this month.

At times like this it's vital that people with disability continue to remain a top priority when it comes to potential risks and safety concerns. https://t.co/kwtVVrE45i

Fantastic to hear the US Open has changed their mind and decided to go ahead with wheelchair tennis this year.

Promoting seamless inclusion for people with disability is something we all have the ability to influence, and this is a perfect example. https://t.co/zb1GUfC0rO

Very disappointing to hear. It's even more distressing to know the players and their teams were not consulted. So sorry Dylan. With so many things happening in the world, now is the time we should be standing together and supporting inclusion for all people.

Just got announced that the US Open will go ahead WITHOUT wheelchair tennis.. Players weren’t consulted. I thought I did enough to qualify - 2x champion, number 1 in the world. But unfortunately I missed the only thing that mattered, being able to walk. Disgusting discrimination

As restrictions across the country begin to ease and with services slowly recommencing, we wanted to provide a quick overview of our services and how they will change to keep everyone safe. https://t.co/2sInCbaBKQ
