From a young age Nihal Iscel has been assisting others and acting as an advocate. This week, Simon had a fascinating conversation with this passionate and strong woman with a vast knowledge gained from a variety of life experiences.

International Day of People with Disability is recognised each year on 3 December. Nihal suggests that this year's theme, 'Fostering disability inclusive societies for advancing social progress’, could perhaps be considered a proper 'celebration' when we have reached full and meaningful inclusion for all.

Learn what this means and so much more from someone who has worked hard to create change to benefit others since she was a child, both in her country of birth Türkiye, and Australia.

We are all part of one community and we all have an equal role to play within that community.
