We’re gearing up, stretching out, and diving headfirst into the City of Joondalup Mullaloo Triathlon 2025—an event that brings together athletes, supporters, and the local community for a thrilling day of sport and purpose. On April 6th, 2025, our dedicated team of Together Now WA (TNWA) staff, friends, and supporters will take on this challenge to raise critical funds for our Youth with Disabilities Program, launching later this year in partnership with Kids First Australia.
What’s the Mullaloo Triathlon All About?
Held at the stunning Mullaloo Beach, this triathlon features events for all fitness levels, from beginners to seasoned pros. It’s a chance for athletes to push their limits, while spectators soak up the coastal vibes and cheer on their favourites. Our team will be competing in both the Standard, Bolt and Sprint distances, with goals set and spirits high. Learn more about the event here.
Why This Triathlon Is More Than Just a Race
This year, every kilometre covered by our athletes will bring us closer to our goal of transforming the lives of youth with disabilities by helping them bridge the often-challenging gap between high school and adult life. This transition can be difficult for anyone, but for young people with disabilities, navigating a world that isn’t designed for their success makes it even harder. Our Youth with Disabilities Program aims to change that by providing:
- Skill development workshops (tech, job readiness, and life skills tailored to their individual needs).
- Employment and work experience opportunities to help them gain confidence, independence, and financial security Mentorship and peer support programs to guide them through this pivotal stage of life.
Thanks to our collaboration with Kids First Australia, we’ll be able to deliver holistic, person-centred support, creating pathways that lead to meaningful employment, independence, and long-term success.
