This morning I joined with Minister for Disabilities Kate Washington MP to co-host the launch of Guide Dogs Australia new Inclusive Employment campaign for people with low vision and blindness.

We heard some truly inspiring stories from people vision and blindness who are breaking barriers in the workplace every day — like Craig Shanahan, the blind chef, and Seth Leggett, who codes without sight. Their message says it all: “Think I can’t? Just watch me.”

You can watch their stories here:

Craig: here

Seth: here

A big thank you to David Locklin, Executive Director of Assistance Dogs International, Tamara Searant, General Manager of Social Change at Guide Dogs NSW/ACT, and Zara Perry, a powerful lived experience presenter, for sharing their insights today.
