One of the first interviews we did when we launched MyCareSpace was on this amazing individual, Madizon D'Rozario.

From the get go we were taken in by her kick-butt attitude and sense of humour.

Great to see that Under Armour have picked up on that and given Madi another platform to show her spirit.

We love this campaign and what it stands for .....:

1. What you put in is what you get out

2. Be the best person that you can be

Have you met Gerard O'Dwyer?

He was awarded Best Male Actor at Sydney's Tropfest, the world’s largest short film festival in 2009 for his role in Bus Stop Films' short film Be My Brother, which went on to be awarded Best Film on the evening as well - what an achievement! This was just the beginning of his career.

Jess Irwin was born in 1987 and after a traumatic birth which resulted in a high level of cerebral palsy, she was sent home with her parents, Tony and Robyn. 

Jess says that the best advice her parents received from one of her therapists was " Your daughter has a physical disability. Don't give her a social one".
