Would a life-changing health diagnosis stop you in your tracks or spur you on to create something extraordinary?
For Georgina Colman, being diagnosed with MS has been the catalyst for a business that is making a difference to the lives of disabled people around the UK.

Her solution is Purpl, the UK’s first disability discount site. 🙌🏽
