Alishah

Hey I am Alishah, I love weight lifting and am an active wheelchair user who has HEDS which affects my whole body and a discoid meniscus and a neuroma in my left knee.

I am in constant pain and have some use of my legs which is limited to only being able to furniture walk and stand for a small duration.

My wheelchair is my aid and my best friend and has given me a new life! I can actually go to a supermarket and actually focus on my shop rather than worrying about my leg giving way and having the added pain.

I have had to battle a variety of mental health conditions in the past, some of which is a result of undiagnosed health conditions.

Since 2019 through dedication, resilience, strength and being me I have thrived and lived an active life.

I'm on my own with my rehabilitation journey as there is nothing the doctors can do now. So I do my best, since being in an active wheelchair I did a marathon on my homemade wheelchair trainer my partner and his dad built for me and achieved 210 miles in April and through my active lifestyle have lost 2 stone.

I'm making change in the disabled community and inspiring disabled and able bodied people.
