Theme: Personal stories of resilience and empowerment.

When we met Lily, she had just started her new job as a receptionist at a local clinic. Diagnosed with cerebral palsy, Lily once doubted whether workplaces would be open to her unique needs. Today, she’s thriving — not just because of inclusive hiring practices, but because of the courage she brings to every task.

Stories like Lily’s are powerful reminders of why inclusive spaces matter. They remind us that when people are supported to bring their whole selves into their work and lives, everyone benefits. Keep an eye on our blog next week for another powerful feature on breaking barriers in education.
