Shane Hryhorec is an entrepreneur and passionate advocate for people with disabilities. In 2007, Shane broke his neck in a swimming pool accident. He chose to see this as an opportunity to improve equality for people with disabilities. In this episode, Shane explains why having physical access to locations is so important, and how his social media videos depicting honest reviews of travelling with a wheelchair made it into the hands of a Disney employee.

"I started importing beach matting and beach wheelchairs and providing them to people and councils and governments all around Australia. And I've helped work towards making over 100 beaches in Australia accessible for people with disabilities." says Shane.
