About the event
📚 Book Launch Event: Wheelchair Meets Wilderness
By Clare Reilly | Foreword by Carol Cooke AM PLY
Join us for an inspiring and unforgettable evening as we celebrate the official launch of Wheelchair Meets Wilderness, a powerful true story of courage, resilience, and determination against all odds.
In early 2026, Clare Reilly set out to achieve what many believed was impossible, covering more than 1,000 kilometres along Western Australia’s rugged Munda Biddi Trail in an off-road wheelchair. Living with multiple sclerosis, every kilometre brought relentless terrain, unpredictable conditions, and the daily realities of navigating life with MS.
But this journey was never just about distance.
It became a mission of hope.
