Meet Amalia, with a smile that can light up the room, she lives with dystonic quadriplegia cerebral palsy, a condition caused by a lack of oxygen during labour.

Whether she’s enjoying a thrilling activity that gives her an adrenaline rush or simply sharing a laugh with her classmates, Amalia brings joy to everyone around her. She loves her school, her teachers, and her peers, and they love her back just as much. With her determination, Amalia is committed to working hard to achieve her goal of living an independent life in the future.

Meet Toby, an 11-year-old cheeky pre-teen brimming with confidence. Toby has Dystonic Cerebral Palsy and uses a wheelchair to get around, but nothing stands in the way of his dreams for a bright future. His favourite subject is Science, and he’s lightning-fast at doing maths sums in his head—so fast, in fact, that he doesn't need to write anything down. His brain works like a computer! Over the last 2 years Toby has brought cheers to the crowds in his representative Bocce and Ten Pin Bowling, along with his Race Running at School and Zone Carnivals.
Toby has a great group of friends who totally get his zany sense of humour, making every day fun. The assistive technology Toby uses—like his wheelchair and EyeGaze Computer—has been a game-changer in his life, giving him the tools to succeed. Toby loves to show his skills on his EyeGaze completing his assigned work using his eyes . These resources, provided by the Cerebral Palsy Alliance, have had a huge impact on his independence and outlook. Toby is excited to attend mainstream high school next year, just like his peers and cannot wait to tackle anything in his way.

Meet Jeremy, a true warrior and an inspiration to us all. Jeremy’s story began with a neonatal stroke at birth, which resulted in a right-sided hemiplegia. Shortly after, he was diagnosed with cerebral palsy, and doctors weren’t sure if he would ever be able to walk. But Jeremy has always been a fighter. With unwavering determination, countless hours of therapy, and a strong will, he continues to grow from strength to strength.
While living with cerebral palsy has made some everyday tasks challenging, it has not stopped Jeremy from dreaming BIG. He has his heart set on one day representing Australia at the Paralympics in snowboarding. His grit and perseverance are shining examples of what can be achieved with hard work and a positive mindset.
