Earlier this month I participated in the first Corporate Roll-A-Thon to support Wheelchair Sports NSW/ACT! 💪 Team Macquarie jumped on a wheelchair and rolled around the Allianz Stadium for four hours to help “change lives of people with a disability through participation in sport.” Definitely a life-changing experience I will never forget! ❤️

"It was a friend who introduced me to Wheelchair Sports after acquiring my injury, so I'm really passionate about getting involved and spreading the word about adaptive sports. If you know someone living with a disability, encourage them to have a go or come out and watch a game in their local area" - Annabelle Lindsay (International Wheelchair Basketball player and partnerships guru at icare) Tap in to an adaptive sports community near you: https://lnkd.in/gcyk_sx5 #reimaginewhatspossible #imaginewhatwecando

On 1st August, team members from Macquarie Group attended the inaugural Roll-a-thon hosted by Wheelchair Sports NSW/ACT at Allianz Stadium. Each team was allocated a sports wheelchair with the aim of keeping the wheels rolling around the Allianz Stadium concourse for 4-hours in order to raise funds and spread awareness to support those with a disability through participation in sport. Thank you to everyone who sponsored our team and supported this amazing cause. #macquariegroup #foundationprogram #rollathon #wheelchairsportsnsw
