Why I walk

Walking with Will

“I like to walk with my mum and dad, just keeping moving keeps me calm. I like to walk where I can see pelicans and highland cattle.”

Will Pierce

Will is now 24, and was diagnosed at 14. He lives on the Sunshine Coast with his parents and twin sister Ella. He has two highland cattle, Rocky and Freddie, and loves pelicans.
