Bendigo Regional SCI Network Meeting – March 2018

For the March 2018 Bendigo SCI Regional Network meeting, the group met at the Bendigo Stadium Bistro and enjoyed lunch, a chat, and welcomed new members to the group. One of the new members was the cute and well behaved puppy of one the members, who made his home in the wheelchair basket!

Afterwards, guest speaker Curtis Palmer spoke about his inspiring journey from a rugby loving –teenager, to wheelchair rugby Paralympian, to his life now as a father and personal trainer. He has also been a journalist, motivational speaker, TV presenter and authored a book about his life's journey.

Curtis also spoke how his love for sport and rugby were one of the defining factors that helped him with his rehabilitation, and reinforced the fact that one can still do what they love after injury.
