“Together, we can make this moment the beginning of the greatest movement for positive change in our history. If enough of us choose to change one small thing...together, we have the power to change anything.”
It was a huge, impossible dream – to circle the globe in a wheelchair – and it began with a single turn of a wheel.
It has been 25 years since my journey to make the world more accessible and inclusive and find a cure for spinal cord injury travelled around the globe as the Man in Motion World Tour (MIMWT). For 26 months my team and I wheeled more than 40,000 km through 34 countries, raising awareness of the potential of people with disabilities. The Tour raised $26M which has grown over the past 25 years to over $245M towards my dream. |
