Description

The Latest in LGBTIQ+ Health and Policy is a podcast that brings you the health and well-being hot topic discussions that matter to LGBTIQ+ people.


On this episode, we chat to Robyn Lambird, an Australian wheelchair racer and model. Robyn won a bronze medal in the Women’s 100m T34 at the 2020 Summer Paralympics, becoming the first out non-binary athlete to compete at the Paralympics, and won a bronze medal in the Tokyo Paralympics. Robyn was also the first person in a wheelchair to be featured in one of Target’s active-wear campaigns. They have modelled for Tommy Hilfiger, Bonds and ModiBodi.


In chatting with Robyn, we discover their personal journey, their unique challenges as a non-binary athlete with a disability, and how their advocacy work has led to increased visibility for LGBTIQ+ people with a disability in the sporting field.
