Cerebral Palsy League

The Cerebral Palsy League (CPL) is a non-profit organisation that provides vital support and services to over 5,000 children and adults with cerebral palsy and related physical disabilities because we believe everybody has the same right to a fulfilling life. We provide services every day, at every stage of our clients’ lives and have been doing so for over 60 years in thousands of homes, schools, communities and workplaces across Queensland. We work alongside our clients to achieve important life milestones like walking, talking, learning, working and living independently through a broad range of services spanning direct personal care, therapies, technologies, equipment and employment. The individualised programs we provide equip our clients to fulfil their passions, participate in their communities, and express their creativity.

Mission / Objective

The Cerebral Palsy League of Queensland will provide quality services and supports which will enable and empower people with cerebral palsy and related disabilities to create and access opportunities to lead valued lives as respected and equal members of society within their family and community.

Wills and Bequests

If you had the chance to influence the way people would remember you, what better way than knowing you had made a difference to the life of a child? For most of us, an important part of our values is to make a positive difference in the lives of others. Through a gift in your will, you can make a significant contribution in the lives of Queenslanders with disability.
 
Gifts in wills are vital in helping us provide much needed equipment, therapy and support services to children and adults with disabilities. For a confidential discussion regarding your will or how to make a bequest, please contact the Donor Relations Manager.

Volunteering

Any not-for-profit organisation depends heavily on public generosity and volunteer participation for its success. We have a long association with volunteers who provide valuable community support in terms of time, money, resources, expertise, contacts and connections, for both the organisation and individual people with disabilities. Our volunteers extend and enhance the services provided by paid staff.
