I loved listening to the stories of people living with Multiple Sclerosis on World MS Day (30th May). Many Multiple Sclerosis symptoms are invisible – this is the case for many disabilities, including those related to learning, attention, mental health, and chronic pain.

I believe in supporting and empowering people to speak up about their lived experiences of disability, to make their disabilities more visible. We need to listen and seek to understand their experiences to become more aware of how we can treat others and offer support. Let’s continue to break down the stigma and systemic barriers against disability in our society – because every person has the right to live their life to their full potential.

Thank you to MS SA and NT and Multiple Solutions for your dedication toward building a more inclusive society.
