Sam Bailey (Motivational Speaker) "You Don't Need Wings to Fly"  - Overcoming the challenges of Quadriplegia

Community Event -

Sam Bailey suffered a spinal injury in a car accident while jackerooing in the Northern Territory at 19 years of age, leaving him a C6/C7 quadriplegic.  He is paralysed from the chest down with only limited use of his arms and hands and can't regulate his body temperature.  He has lost bowel and  bladder control and part of his lung capacity.  He has overcome all those challenges to become a farmer, ultralight pilot, public speaker, role model for children and best selling author of the book Head over Heels which he co-wrote with his wife, former ABC Rural Reporter, Jenny Black.   His story has touched thousands of Australians of all ages and walks of life.

Light supper included.
