2011 Inclusive Community Champions

In 2010, the Spinal Injuries Association’s Inclusive Community Champions (ICC) awards culminated in a State Reception with Premier Anna Bligh and global spinal cord injury advocate Rick Hansen, where four Queensland businesses were honoured for being truly inclusive.

Following the success of our inaugural ICC awards, we’re delighted to open the awards for 2011, which will also be extended to include voting from the general public, further promoting and encouraging inclusive communities throughout Queensland.
