2. Geoff's Story of Inclusion at Nambour Aquatic Centre

1. Daniel's Story of Inclusion at Wildflower Kitchen

As I have had a brain tumour removed, I can sometimes be unsteady on my feet or slur, and then staff of a business think I am drunk, and this is very embarrassing for me and my family. And prevents me from going out... Daniel's Story of Inclusion brough to life by Mercure Sunshine Coast Kawana Waters.

2. Geoff's Story of Inclusion at Nambour Aquatic Centre

I haven’t been in a pool for over 40 years. I can’t swim, I have a heart condition, a lung condition and I have epilepsy. All of this alongside a fear of water. Going to an Aquatic Centre is not usually top of my list, truth be told, it’s never on my list. Reading about Cérge I was intrigued, terrified, but intrigued to see if Cérge could help me.

3. Elizabeth's Story of Inclusion at White's IGA Mount Coolum

I haven’t known life without pain. I was run over by a car when I was 3 years old, and spent the next 18 months in a coma. I had a lot of injuries from that accident, including losing a side of my face, and my scalp ripped off. It was a miracle I survived. Add to that I have liver cancer, and have already outlived the months they gave me to live... Elizabeth's Story of Inclusion brought to life by White's IGA.

4. Sarah's Story of Inclusion at Burpengary Regional Aquatic & Leisure Centre

Sometimes it feels like when they gave out disability I got the buffet.  My body aches because I have fibromyalgia, my joints and muscles don’t do as I say due to my Ehlers Danos (EDS).  I have FND which is Functional Neurological Disorder and means my body and brain can do things that I don’t realise they are doing, from tics to seizures to random movements or even shutting down...

5. Henry's Story of Inclusion at White's IGA Mooloolah

We avoid the shops like the plague, as Henry (autistic), normally is overwhelmed within minutes of arriving. To be honest, sometimes even before we’ve made it through the car park, to get to the shop. This happened a few weeks ago, when we had to leave mid shopping experience. I thought we would be ok, but it was a disaster. Henry's Story of Inclusion brought to life by White's IGA.
