Meet Lyndsay.

Lyndsay has the most amazing, inspirational story that everyone needs to know about.

After surgery Lyndsay required an amputation and her openess to opportunity increased. Lyndsay said YES.

Do you know anyone who has:

  • taken part in the closing ceremony for the paralympics
  • had an acting career as a one legged stripper taken place in emergency training exercise which required fake blood
  • lived in France started a hugely successful business where the measurement of success is prioritised at the customer experience
  • learnt to sit ski been on dragons den - and 1000s other things

We are now accountability sisters - for when we write our books. There I have said it out loud now Lyndsay so get writing them notes! Please share Lyndsays story far and wide for anyone you know who works in healthcare who may know someone who or an individual who uses walking sticks. I have stopped making sense now as I am enjoying listening to Lyndsay too much - make a brew and enjoy. Let us know your thoughts in the comments below.
