#IDPWD recap 🤜🤛

Paralympians around the world celebrated the International Day of Persons with Disability and spread their message.

👉 Dylan Alcott: “Every single one of us deserves the right to get out and live the lives that they want to live.”

👉Husnah Kukundakwe: “Through Para sport I’ve been able to come out of my shell and become the confident young woman I am today.”

👉Stef Reid: “I feel so lucky to be an amputee in this generation. I am so thankful to the people obsessed with finding solutions and spreading possibility. Life is more difficult with a disability. But it can still be awesome.”

👉Robyn Love: “Never did I imagine that I would be playing for my country, travelling the world and sharing my story to challenge perceptions and champion inclusion.”

👉Marissa Papaconstantinou: “You are valued, you are important, you are worthy and there is no limit to your potential.”

👉Dani Aravich: “The problem doesn’t lie with me & my disability- but the way society treats disability.”

👉Neelam O’Neill: “This day is about embracing our differences.”

👉Dana Mathewson: “I’m proud to represent the 15% of the world with a disability, and help educate the world around us that we aren’t less than anyone else.”
