Sandie Roberts | Disability Advocate, Speaker & Model

Beauty and happiness can be found because of a disability, not despite it.  Feeling as though I lost my sense of identify, I’m now on a mission to encourage and empower others with a disability to boldly live life “in full colour”. Using style, humour & emotion I convey messages of hope. After becoming suddenly disabled in 2019, and struggling to come to terms as life was turned upside down, I found joy through acceptance and recognising that disability is not a bad word. While life with a disability isn’t without its challenges, the world needs to change to accommodate the needs of disabled people to enable us to fully participate in society, rather than disregarding a whole sector of humanity as somehow “less than”.
