Purple Changemakers

Creating change by bringing together people, ideas and opportunities.

Purple Changemakers is my platform for sharing stories, insights and practical lessons on creating positive change. Drawing on my experiences as an entrepreneur, disability advocate, speaker and campaigner, I explore how individuals and organisations can turn good intentions into meaningful impact.

Whether I’m talking about resilience, inclusion, leadership, technology or social innovation, my focus is always the same: understanding how change really happens.

Purple Changemaker Spotlight: Inspiring Future Marketers at Oxford Brookes University On Friday, I had the privilege of giving a guest lecture at Oxford Brookes University’s Business School, thanks to the amazing Junior Oliveira. Junior came across my work and Purple Goat through his teaching on marketing and industry and kindly invited me to share my entrepreneurial and changemaking journey, along with the fantastic work the Purple Goat team is doing to connect brands with disabled content creators and drive inclusive marketing forward. What struck me the most was the engagement from the students—thoughtful, challenging questions on everything from business and inclusion to the future of marketing. It was a day full of inspiration all around, and I can’t wait to hear what impact this session has on their future approach to disability, marketing, and business. A huge thank you to Junior and Oxford Brookes for the opportunity—let’s keep the conversation going!

Join a growing community of changemakers, leaders and curious minds who believe a more inclusive world benefits everyone.
