Sharing his own personal narrative and drawing on the narratives of others to support this life mission of ensuring that everyone has the same opportunities regardless of impairment, age and socio-economic backgrounds. Supporting a number of important social changes over the years from LGBT+ rights to choice and control and co-production.
