Lismore mum Alicia refused to let disability get in the way of her ability to achieve more.
Now thanks to Social Futures and NDIS, she is helping others participants work towards their dreams too.
Mum of two Alicia has cerebral palsy which affects her physically, but not intellectually.
"Because of my disability, every day I am in pain. Something is sore every day and some days are worse than others," she said.
"I'll have random leg spasms or tightening of the muscle - some days it's hard just to get out of bed. And then if my whole back goes into spasm - that's just ⦠awful."
