We are excited to announce Rachael Watson as an 2021 Ambassador! A para-swimmer world record holder and gold medallist, Rachael is a true example of hard work and persistence paying dividends.

Rachael set a Paralympic record and won gold in the 50m Freestyle at Rio in 2016 before doing it all again at the delayed 2020 Tokyo Paralympics, winning back-to-back gold in the same event.

When she’s not breaking world records, Rachael is dedicated to improving health outcomes for people with disability and raising awareness of the importance of inclusion.

Rachael Watson

πŸ₯‡πŸŠ An emotional night for Rachael Watson, who successfully defended her crown from Rio 2016 with a Paralympic Record.

"I just can't thank Australia and the world enough for embracing Para-Sport and embracing me as a person with a disability and believing in me," she told Channel 7. πŸ’šπŸ’›

"Just never give up … you're gonna have a lot of people tell you you can't do it because you've got a disability. They're gonna tell you it's too hard, they'll tell you to just stop believing it and try something else. Honestly if you put your heart in it and you just try and try and try, you can achieve whatever you want in your life."
