Enjoyed speaking at this great event yesterday for HC-One JLA 500 delegates from a care home company whose moto is ‘caring with kindness’ There was no surprise this event had a special warmth about it . They all make such a difference to people’s lives daily. ❤️

What if your life changes in a split second? No preparation at all. All of a sudden your world is very different. Tough times don’t have to define us but can redefine us. Paralysis closed many doors in my life but it has opened even more.

It’s #DisabilityPrideMonth When I had an accident that changed my life forever ♿️ I felt embarrassed and broken… I felt like I lost my identity. It took time to accept and adapt. Now I feel more confident than I ever used to be and I am content with who I am. Disability

It took a long time to adapt. I had just reached the highest level in my sport, my goals and ambitions were set high then everything changed in a split second. An accident left me paralysed from the chest down.♿️ If my younger ‘able bodied’ self could have said anything to

500 delegates at the RVUnite event made a fantastic group for my last event before the summer break… It’s been a busy first half to the year. I’ve met some fantastic people. Thanks to everyone for booking me to speak- each and every one has a different feel and I love them

A spinal cord injury puts a stop to so much… All those things that were often taken for granted suddenly wiped away. It took a while to be able to look back with happiness and not feel sad but in the end I got there… and those great times became wonderful memories. Here
