CEO, The Growing Space

​

Sam runs The Growing Space, supporting NDIS participants to live good lives. Her team of 25 are ALL disabled people and family carers – she is passionate about the quality and innovation that lived experience brings to the work, as solo parent of two participants herself. Sam serves on the NDIS Independent Advisory Council, several NFP boards and the SA Safeguarding Taskforce. Through COVID she has worked with disabled people, families, and her sector colleagues to harness her considerable social media influence to share current information, producing and making all information available for free in Easy English and highly accessible formats. It feels like she gives of herself to all who ask with a genuine need. I don't think she ever sleeps.
