Human Impact

Mark Nixon is an elite basketball player from Canada who was aiming for the 2012 London Olympics until a catastrophic car accident that left him paraplegic and without feeling from the waist down. That accident he believes saved his life and showed him his purpose.  He was on the Canadian team for the Paralympics but another injury prevented him from going, they won gold. He is a keynote speaker, and a mindset and disability advocate across North America.  He works and lives independently, cycles 15km each day and coaches both able bodied and wheelchair basketball and has a passion for working with children. Mark shares with Ed Andrew what it is like to live with a disability and how others perceive you, he is the founder of perception 21.
