Lizz Hills
Twenty years ago, a devastating train accident in Thailand left Lizz with a fractured skull, brain injury, and 30 broken bones. Doctors told her she'd never return to university, work, or have children. Defying those predictions, Lizz has gone on to pursue her Master's degree, become a mother, and establish Trek2Reconnect, her private counselling practice.
As a National Assistance Card holder, Lizz credits the Card as a vital tool in her support system, helping her navigate challenges and giving her daily confidence to achieve both ordinary and extraordinary goals. Through her work and her story, Lizz demonstrates that with the right support structures, people with brain injuries can accomplish amazing things. She continues to inspire others by proving that disability doesn't define limits, our determination and support systems do.
