HISTORY

 

Breakaway was conceived in 1982, when members of the Rotary Club of Wyong on the Central Coast of NSW, convened a respite camp for thirty young people with physical disabilities. This first camp was held at Strathavon Resort at Wyong.

 

Following the overwhelming success of this camp, Wyong Rotary continued to hold camps each year. The camps were then held at Camp Toukley for several  years.

 

The need for more respite camps was becoming increasingly obvious,  as was the need to have our own purpose built site.  With the dedication and hard work of a large number of Rotary clubs and the Central Coast community, along with the generous support of Delta Electricity, we were able to move to our current location at San Remo in 1989.

 

Today we are ideally situated on a quiet 25 acres at San Remo, enhancing the lives of people with disabilities.
