Here we join forces to enhance the lives of individuals with disabilities in Cairns and the FNQ Region.
Our comprehensive online directory links individuals with disabilities in Far North Queensland to local service providers, support services, and essential resources—all consolidated into a single, accessible platform. Additionally, we organise an annual Disability Expo to showcase the latest developments in disability care.

The Cairns Disability Network (CDN) is a group of Therapists, Providers, Supports and Services who link together for a 7am breakfast time meeting on the 3rd Thursday of each month at Spinal Life.. (meeting room right by reception)
We also host an annual Cairns Disability Expo.
New providers/services/supports welcome!
We would love to hear about your provider work, support and services, upcoming events, resources, disability accommodation, and opportunities and information to benefit people with disability and those that support them in the NDIS and Disability sector in the Cairns region.
Attendance is free and food and drink is available for purchase at the café at Spinal Life.
A great way to meet other providers, you can attend just once, or become a regular, all very casual. Meeting usually finishes by 8.30, but can leave at anytime if you have work commitments.
CDN Meeting Dates for 2026 are:
19 Feb – 19 March – 16 April – 21 May – 18 June – 16 July – 20 Aug – 17 Sept – 15 Oct – 19 Nov
