National Assistance Card

A little vid Paul put together about The National Assistance Card.


 The National Assistance Card was a really amazing tool for getting things done on the Larapinta Adaptive expedition. While it is available nationally for people with acquired brain injuries (ABI), it is being trialled for other neurological disorders and it is hoped that one day will be available to all people with disabilities.

Myself and Paul Allen used it several times and educated schools, support organisations and even publicans about the new card.

Now The Real Fun Begins!

All the trekkers are now safely back in Tasmania, nursing sore legs and blisters (Paul P. nursing two dislocated and painful toes). But plenty of amazing memories of the peace and tranquility of the Tjoritja.


The Ford Ranger support Vehicle is being returned to the Ford Motor Company of Australian in Campbellfield and we can get down to the difficult job of producing a quality film.

We have 10s of hours of amazing footage and the next challenge is going to be editing it into a narrative that will do the difficult and deep learning of the Larapinta Adaptive Expedition justice. 

Also we need to get out all the rewards for the kind people who supported our Pozible fundraising campaign - the socks, the beanies, the books and a heavy Log Lamp!

Thank you again and we'll keep you posted I promise.

Paul P. (on behalf of the Larapinta Adaptive Expedition).
