Congratulations to @AusWomensHealth Board member @heidilapaglia on receiving the 2023 #NationalAwardsForDisabilityLeadership for Rights Activism! 🌠💜 #IDPWD #DisabilityAwards2023 @DisabilityLead

Celebrating #PwD shouldnt just be on #IDPWD, so I am doing so all week. 1st up: Akii Ngo, fellow recipient of one of a @DisabilityLead award! I met Akii in 2019 & have been in awe at their work since - from keynote speaking to runway appearances. See akiingo.com

While #IDPWD is usually a day I celebrate *other* disabled leaders, this #IDPWD I am so grateful to have been chosen as a recipient in the 2023 #NationalAwardsForDisabilityLeadership. Thank you so much to @DisabilityLead and all others that have showed me support.

Well, I can’t believe it…but I WON! I am so honoured that I have won the National Award for Disability Leadership 2023 for ‘Change Making’ from @DisabilityLead for my efforts regarding Meningococcal Disease, change, advocacy & inclusion for our community #DisabilityAwards2023

We were fortunate to have @HChristinaR, CEO of the @DisabilityLead present to VDWC staff & the VPS Enablers Network yesterday. We’re doing a lot of great things here at VDWC, & it’s always helpful to have presentations like these to spark conversation about what more we can do.

Representatives from VDWC were proud to attend the @DisabilityLead Oration. Natalie Wade, respected disability rights lawyer and advocate, was the Orator and spoke about ending segregation in housing and ensuring new builds are both accessible and affordable. #DisabilityOration

Another big day in #Melbourne for @DisabilityLead with a number of DLI members participating in a roundtable on #disability led businesses' banking for the @NAB Ability Network.

@DownSyndromeAu @NDISDeane @CydaAu So excited to see you both!

DSA's Health Manager Natalie attended the inaugural @DisabilityLead oration today, given by disability rights lawyer and advocate, Natalie Wade. Great to see @NDISDeane & @CydaAu at the event! disabilityleaders.com.au/resources-info…

@mdi_unimelb So good to have you there!

@DisabilityLead An honour to listen to Natalie Wade at the #DisabilityOration “Ending segregation in housing is the issue of our time”

Excited to be in the audience of the @DisabilityLead 2023 #DisabilityOration. Alistair Baldwin is kicking off the event reminding us that our actions today will resonate far into the future.

Today South Aussie #HumanRights champion & #Disability rights lawyer, Natalie Wade, will give the @DisabilityLead Oration 2023.

Exciting news! Down Syndrome Australia has just been announced as a Finalist in the @DisabilityLead awards for 2023! 🎉 DSA's Inclusive Communication Project, run with DSA's Health Ambassadors, has been recognised under the Innovation category! #DisabilityAwards2023
