Stories from people with disability

There is such as wide range of supports out there and no end to the possibilities of how you can shape your lifestyle, so it can be hard to know where to start.
Reading other people’s experiences of living with disability can inspire you to live your life to the fullest and show you what supports are available.
These personal stories can also give you ideas of the kinds of goals you can strive for and the tools you might use to achieve them.
Each of our printed Disability Support Guides has stories like the ones below included to help you understand how supports work in real life and the difference they can make.
