Celebrate Ability

November 22nd, 2006 by janet

On Sunday December 3, I am going to the Celebrate Ability Convention in Perth at the Perth Convention Centre

This is a free day, designed to showcase adapted equipment and craft that can be used by people with disabilities to join in recreational activities. A bio-medical engineer, Darren Lomman of Dreamfit is behind some amazing inventions, such as a hand controlled motor cycle which can be ridden by a paraplegic.

The theme of the day is that people with disabilities can get out there and enjoy recreational hobbies, just like anyone else. There is always a way around things, and Darren and his team have proved that with their wonderful inventions.

I am really excited to be one of the guest speakers on the day. My message will be never to give up, no matter what, which is the consistent theme in my book, Beyond the Red Door. My book will be available on the day for buying and I will autograph copies.

The convention is open to everybody. I hope to see you there.
