One In A Hundred - International Ladies Day

Wales Online has reported a celebration of Wales 100 brilliant women. Sara, one of our members is shown at number 44.

A community councillor, charity worker and accomplished actress.

Sara, who was born with Down’s Syndrome, has been performing since she was child and in 2008 she played the lead role in Miss Brown To You, which toured the UK.

She is the youngest member of Pentyrch Community Council in Cardiff and works for the charity Mencap Cymru as a project officer.

"I’ve always thought, ‘I’ve got Down’s Syndrome. So what?"

Sara has visited schools and colleges around Wales to challenge perceptions and prove to young people that they should not let their disabilities become a barrier to ambition.
