Just4Kids is a charity organisation based in Northern Qld that puts together adventure holidays designed to raise money for people with extra needs under the age of 18. A247 has partnered with them to help make their 2021 and 2022 trips an even greater success.

Firstly a little bit about Just4Kids.

Just4Kids’ mission is to help make a positive & lasting difference in the quality of the life of sick or disadvantaged children and youth under 18yrs. They endeavour to support those in their local community by using funds to purchase vital medical & support equipment for those in need.

Just4Kids have no paid staff, relying solely on the dedication of their team of experienced and passionate volunteers. Prior to the COVID 19 restrictions they have held a yearly tag along motor trail covering areas such as Cape York, Simpson Desert, Crocodile Safari, Surf to Snow, Beach to Bay and the events are fully catered for by their qualified chefs.


What they have achieved over the years through these events is actually pretty impressive, not only from a fundraising point of view but also from the ability to organise some really awesome adventures.

If you are as excited about this trip as I am, I would recommend that you jump over to the Just4Kids’ Dino Adventure page and register your interest. I know that they have a very limited number of spots due to some secret but exciting things that they have planned.


The Kimberly Holiday with a Difference is the 2022 adventure that will be here before you know it. Mark – Motor Trails Director – told us that this trip has been on the planning board now for well over 4 years with a good 12 months of prep prior to its postponement earlier this year. By the time it roles around it will be over 5 years and 24 months, so we are expecting a pretty awesome adventure.


This massive, nearly month-long, adventure is going to be fully catered for by our team of chefs and we have so many great experiences lined up it amazes even me.

Starting in Alice Springs, this adventure winds through the Northern Territory and into WA heading through places like Wolfe Creek Crater, Bungle Bungles, Cape Leveque, Windjana Gorge, King Leopold Ranges, Gibb River Road, Lake Argyle, Victoria River and finally ending in Katherine. If that isn’t one cracker of a trip then I don’t know what is!


It might still be a few months away, but if you are interested make sure to get in touch with the team at Just4Kids’ now.


Having spoken with a few of the Just4Kids’ volunteers I know how much they are looking forward to these two events and I really get a sense of how much fun they will be.


It is an exciting 12 months coming up for the team and so much opportunity to raise some much needed funds. So if you’re keen, anyone from anywhere is welcome and the Just4Kids’ team would love you to get involved!
