As part of Disability Pride Month, the Supported Needs and Disability Office is holding on-location clinics every Monday during July at the lobby of St Bernard's Hospital.

Disability Pride offers an opportunity for the community to challenge negative attitudes, while at the same time embracing disability identity in a positive way.

Disability advocate Benji Borastero told Kelly-Anne Borge about overcoming the stigma of being in a wheelchair.
