Jessica Gallagher and I will present our stories about resilience.
- I will present my story about QF32. It’s a view into my world where we take measured risks but also where great things can happen when preparation meets opportunity.
- Jess exposes her world, showing how opportunity and growth can come from adversity. All we need is the will to persist and help from wonderful organisations such as Disabled Wintersport Australia (DWA) and the Royal Blind Society (RBS).
- Katrina Webb (paralympic gold medalist) will MC the evening.
Qantas joins sponsors to donate prizes.
All proceeds will support DWA and the RBS.
As Patron of Disabled Wintersport Australia, I welcome you to join us for an unforgettable evening. Please note that the dress for the evening is now Coat & Tie / Lounge Suit.
