Let's celebrate the first year of our Podcast

Troy Sachs is one of the world’s most recognised and awarded Paralympians. He led the Australian Wheelchair Basketball team, the Rollers, to win two gold and one silver medal in five Paralympic Games from 1992 to 2008.

In 1997 he was awarded an Order of Australia Medal and Australian Sports Medal in 2000. He is also inducted into the Sport Australia and Basketball Australia Halls of Fame.

Since retiring from sport, Troy has focused on giving back to his sporting community, nurturing talent, mentoring emerging athletes and being an advocate for inclusion. He lives and breathes his mantra that a person should be able to do all they set their minds to without limitations.

Matt Stickland has been LIVING with MND for 9.5 years.

He is a husband and dad, he has had to stop working, but is lucky to live on a rural property.

Matt has a beautiful attitude to life, is an amazing support to others with MND and is a demon at fundraising too.

I loved chatting to Matt.

Finn Cadman is 10 years old.

He is an MND champion, he is MND Vic's youngest ambassador.

Finn is unhappy about the discrepancy between NDIS and Aged Care.

Finn is "schmoozing" Politicians to make a change for his Glampa and others.

Julie Labra is a Project Manager with MNDA.

Julie has worked with people with MND for the past 19 years.

Julie was the project manager on the new Lived Experience Network (LEN) which brings together people with Lived Experience and people who wish to research different aspect of MND.

Working on projects with people who have Lived Experience is teaching her more about what it's like to live with MND and thier priorities.

I was delighted to be included in the Firies for MND climb in the blue mountains and invited to be on the Dirt Church Radio podcast with Matt Pridham, Prof Dom Rowe and Gavin Clifton.

Dirt Church radio have kindly allowed me to share their podcast with you all.
