Funds raised from last year's Tour de Timor have helped Motivation Australia to build the skills and capacity of our local partner ASSERT to assist local wheelchair users.

Funds raised through the 2012 Tour de Timor will help us purchase appropriate wheelchairs; and continue to build the capacity of ASSERT staff to work with wheelchair users to provide them with a wheelchair that suits their needs, and training in how to use and maintain their wheelchair. A properly fitted wheelchair that is suited to their environment can open up great opportunities for wheelchair users to contribute and participate in their communities.
