SisterWorks – Cape to Cape 2022

The Cape to Cape Walk Track traverses the south-west corner of Western Australia, 250 kilometres south of Perth. This incredible trail stretches the length of the Leeuwin-Naturaliste Ridge in the Leeuwin-Naturaliste National Park, along the rugged and beautiful West Australian coast.

From Perth to Cape Naturaliste and Yallingup, down along the coast to Cape Leeuwin, this adventure truly is a feast for the senses. From north to south, you’ll trek through ancient karri forest, across white sand beaches, beside sheer cliffs and into coastal hamlets. You’ll witness incredible views of the Indian Ocean from the 126-year-old Cape Leeuwin Lighthouse, look up at some of the world’s oldest hardwoods and enjoy the company of like-minded people committed to making a difference in the lives of women from migrant, refugee and asylum-seeking backgrounds in Australia.

Women from refugee, migrant and asylum-seeking backgrounds currently represent some of the most marginalised people in Australia. Their plight has been further magnified by the continuing uncertainty of COVID-19, snap lockdowns and closed borders.

SisterWorks believes these women – our Sisters, have an incredible capacity to positively impact themselves, their families and our communities. 

As part of this once-in-a-lifetime adventure, you’ll raise vital funds to help refugees, asylum seekers and migrant women improve their confidence and build their social and economic independence.

• $50 covers the cost of a two-week training course, tools and materials for a woman to develop skills in creating her own craft products that can be sold in SisterWorks stores

• $600 pays for six months’ support and sponsorship for one woman at SisterWorks, empowering and equipping her work in Australia and improving her mental wellbeing

• $1,000 keeps the SisterWorks e-Hub app running for a month, so women can build digital literacy, gain technological skills and build confidence in finding online educational and employment opportunities

SisterWorks has supported over 1,200 women from more than 94 countries on their journey to financial security and community connection, but it’s only made possible with your continued support.

How challenging is this adventure?

This adventure is ranked 3/5. While no extensive trekking experience is required prior to registering, our adventures are specifically designed for people who are relatively fit and willing to train. The Cape to Cape trek is a physical challenge, and the fitter you are, the more you will enjoy the experience. 

Much of the trekking will be on soft sand, but other sections will be on rocky headlands. 

You will be well supported on the adventure, with the guides and your team all cheering you on. You are free to move at your own pace and we will take frequent breaks.

How do I fundraise?

Never fundraised before? Not sure where to start? No worries, we don’t expect you to do it alone. You will have regular support from the Inspired Adventures fundraising team, who will help you make a fundraising plan to meet your target. Alongside personalised coaching, we will also send you lots of ideas and resources on how to fundraise. From online fundraising to trivia nights, to bake sales and out-of-the-box ideas, we have years and years of tried and tested tips to make your fundraising a success.

Who will I be travelling with?

We believe small group travel is better for the planet, and better for you. Our adventures usually have 10 – 20 people aged from 18 to 90+ (younger ages considered on request). You can be sure that you have all come together with the shared purpose of making a difference to others and having the adventure of a lifetime.

The group will be led by a local tour guide with expert knowledge of the region. Many groups will also be accompanied by an Inspired Adventures team leader or doctor to support and motivate the team.

Where applicable, a charity representative may also join the team. This is a wonderful opportunity to learn more about your chosen charity and their work.

Do I need to have travel insurance? 

Travel insurance is highly recommended for domestic adventures, to cover cancellation, hospital, emergency evacuation and lost luggage. We advise that you purchase your policy as soon as possible. It’s up to you to ensure you have fully comprehensive travel insurance and you’ll need to share these details with our team before departure. For more information, please visit www.inspiredadventures.com.au/travel-insurance-information.

We understand the dilemma of making travel plans when the world feels unpredictable right now. You can still register for an Inspired Adventure in complete confidence, because we promise to look after you should COVID-19 travel bans affect your plans.

If COVID-19 travel bans mean your Inspired Adventure cannot go ahead as scheduled, we will endeavour to reschedule the departure to a later date to allow you still to travel as planned.
