Stuart Tripp
Stuart is the author of 'Travelling Hopefully' and in September 2012, represented Australia in cycling at the 2012 London Paralympic Games. Prior to the Paralympics, Stuart travelled, trained and competed in Italy, France and Spain.
At 24 years of age Stuart, like other young people, was establishing his career; had enjoyed his first taste of world travel and was eager for more. However, Stuart's life changed forever following a horrific car accident in 1994. This was the start of the road ahead for Stuart, enduring months of confinement, multiple operations, indescribable physical pain, emotional anguish and finally, the loss of his leg.
Drawing on every positive influence in his life, Stuart decided that the loss of his legs would not impact on the quality of his life. He visualised his future and planned action steps to get there.
Stuart is an excellent communicator who includes humour in his talks, encouraging people to laugh at life and themselves. Stuart gives everyone something to think about in their lives.
