A message from our Sammy D Champion
Isabella Vincent - Sammy D Champion | 2023 - current
Australian Paralympic Swimmer
“I have seen first-hand the negative impacts caused by young people being unaware of the effects their actions and words have.
I have been at the end of some malicious actions and unkind words that I am sure with better education could have been prevented.
These programs at an early age will prevent the unnecessary cycle of pain for so many. The empowerment of young people to make positive life decisions allows them to be their best selves and ultimately makes better communities for all of us.
