Kurt Fearnley's Tiny Island

While COVID19 turns our lives upside down, it's important to stop and learn from people who have learnt to thrive in what others perceive to be turbulence. Today we talk to Linda Hughes about constantly adjusting to what life throws in her direction while balancing the supports and complexity of high needs disability. Linda is a fierce social justice advocate and was recognised as Newcastle's Woman of the Year. We talk about the realities facing people with disability right now, the importance of independence and choice while navigating a complex National Disability insurance scheme.
