The former Mandurah Baptist College student does not let her disability hold her back.
She plays sport, represented WA at goal ball, loves music, reading and the West Coast Eagles, and is on a variety of committees including the Youth Disability Advocate Network for 12-25 years olds with a disability.
The high tea is in the Platinum Room at Rushton Park on Sunday, March 19 from 2.30pm to 4.30pm.
Hats and fascinators are encouraged.
The event includes a two course buffet high tea, raffles and a jazz duo.
