It’s an understatement to say Launceston’s Jacquie Spencer is an active person.

Jacquie has been a swimmer all her life and has represented Australia multiple times in swimming at the Special Olympics and is a much-loved member of the Launceston Masters Swimming Club.  Jacquie is a keen walker and she’s done some big walks in recent times – including the 48 kilometre Three Capes Track in Tasmania’s south-east.

Jacquie has cerebral palsy and keeping fit and active are important in her daily life.

Stories of Ability is a six-part City Park Radio podcast produced and hosted by Jodie Lowe.   

"When I came up with the idea for this podcast, the intention was to try to interview people with disabilities in a way that better captures who they are and their story.

I want this podcast to give the listener a stronger sense of people’s achievements, strengths, aspirations so that they can get to know their story on a much deeper level. 

I want to sincerely thank everyone interviewed for this podcast, Chris Ball from City Park Radio for wonderful support and assistance and the Community Broadcasting Foundation for its support.

I hope you enjoy See Me – Stories of Ability."

Jodie Lowe – Host and Producer



Supported by a Community Broadcasting Foundation grant, the series was recorded at the City Park Radio studios in Launceston in 2022.
