BDO Arrow Experience

14 Aug 2025

In May, we proudly hosted the BDO Arrow Experience, bringing together an incredible community of philanthropists, supporters, sponsors, volunteers, and donors to take on two or four of the Arrows of Mt Whitfield.
For the first time, we partnered with the Great Barrier Reef Masters Games, and the result was nothing short of spectacular – more than 110 walkers and runners joined the challenge!
A huge thank you to everyone who made it possible: our tireless volunteers, BDO North Queensland, Cairns Regional Council, Coral Expeditions, Jaecoo Cairns, fgf, Star 102.7 Cairns, Nikki The Clown – Children’s Entertainer & Facepainter, Coffee Your Way, Mr Dairy Whipp and Rotary Club of Cairns Sunrise.
Most importantly, thanks to our participants and their generous donors – you’re helping deliver better health outcomes across our region.
The event supports the Far North Queensland Hospital Foundation’s Donate for DaNi campaign, with almost $40,000 raised by August 20, 2025.
