FINAL SPEAKER ANNOUNCEMENT

Rebecca Sellar is the only female amputee footballer for the Scottish National side. After being born with deformities, she had an amputation to her lower right leg at the age of 1. She is a Para-athlete; also competing in wheelchair tennis and indoor climbing, and now works as a tennis coach day to day, coaching able-bodied and disabled players.
Rebecca was Scottish Women in Sports "Inspiration in Sport" winner of 2018, and No1 Magazine's winner of their 2019 Amazing Sporting Achievement Award and is now working to build a strong disability network in Edinburgh that can provide opportunities and enrichment through sport.

We are so excited to welcome Rebecca to the panel on Friday night and believe her insight into the world of para-sport and disability in the work place will be invaluable to our audience.
