About Us

Can:Do, will do. You’ve got the will. We’ll give you the way

Can:Do Group was born when two of South Australia’s oldest charities realised they could do more good by joining forces.

So that’s exactly what we did.

Ever since, we’ve provided support and assistance to both children and adults who are deaf, hearing-impaired, blind, or vision impaired. We also provide support to their loved ones.

By working together, we’ve saved resources, time, and money. These savings have been able to go towards what matters most; the heart of our organisation, and our reasons for showing up every day: You.

We’re here because we care. And by reading this, you do too.
