Claire Pritchard, a spirited woman navigating life with determination and grace as she manages the complexities of living with multiple sclerosis (MS). A passionate traveller and former nurse, Claire has become a powerful advocate for raising awareness about invisible disabilities and empowering others to live life on their own terms.
Despite the unpredictable nature of MS, Claire continues to embrace her love for travel and has mastered the art of adapting to life’s challenges. Her journey has also included embracing mobility aids, which she now sees as tools for independence rather than limitations. Claire’s work with the NDIS has been both supportive and fulfilling, allowing her to promote inclusivity while finding flexibility in her own life.
Through her advocacy, Claire strives to break down misconceptions about disabilities, especially those that are invisible. Her message is one of hope, resilience, and adaptation: “Never give up. Disability doesn’t make you weak—it shows how strong you are.”
