After a car crash threw her into life as a disabled woman during her Junior Doctor training, Dr Georgina Budd had to navigate an entirely new life with a new 'elephant' in the room. As a full-time wheelchair user Georgie will share her experiences of the challenges of disability and mental health struggles, how we come to terms with traumatic life change, and how any future society not only should have accessibility at its core, but can benefit from it. This event is suitable for teenagers and above, as there will be some discussion of challenging life events and mental health struggles. Audience participation will take the form of visualisation exercises and discussion.
