COMMUNITY SERVICE AWARD COMPTON GREEN

The Community Service Award continues to be a popular category, a clear reflection of the unwavering commitment of Members to give back to the communities they serve. This year, we proudly present the award to Compton Green, an organisation that has demonstrated an exceptional dedication to the betterment of our community.

In today’s social climate where inclusion and accessibility remain a prominent issue, Compton Green stood out in their ambition to address these concerns in the sporting community.

Compton Green is supporting the Hobson Bay Community Fund’s “Inclusion Project” in partnership with the University of Melbourne, to address the need for greater inclusion of young people aged 12-25 with mental or physical disabilities in sporting clubs, seeded by Compton Green Executive Director Adrian Butera.

Welcoming a team of University of Melbourne Master of Social Work students into their West Footscray office, Compton Green provided them with a supportive environment to conduct their research. The students embarked on a mission to find practical ways to enhance the inclusion of young people with disabilities in sports and recreational programs in the City of Hobsons Bay and City of Wyndham.

The result of this collaboration is “Sports for Everyone: A guide to 360° Inclusion for Young People in Sport”. This living document shares local knowledge to create an inclusive environment for young people in sport including concepts such as 360-degree inclusion, individual needs, mental health and disability.

Compton Green’s commitment to continue their involvement with the project and further support the students in their research is commendable and we congratulate them on receiving this award.
