Why This Event Matters

On 3rd July, I’ll be speaking at a deeply meaningful event at Stormont — “Life Worth Living – A Celebration”.

It’s more than a gathering. It’s a stand against narratives that devalue our lives. It’s a celebration of disabled people’s contributions, resilience, and right to thrive.

With assisted dying legislation looming, this is our moment to say our lives are not burdens. We are not optional. We are worthy of protection, investment, and joy.


Who Will Be There?

This event is sponsored by Danny Donnelly MLA and features a powerful line-up of voices, including:

  • Mike Nesbitt, Minister of Health for Northern Ireland
  • Disabled people who have directly benefited from the Independent Living Fund
  • Representatives from disabled people’s organisations
  • Campaigners, advocates, and performers sharing lived experiences, poetry, and music

And yes, I’ll be there too — proud to speak up for disabled lives that are very much worth living.
