Executive Director
Di joined us as Executive Director on 1 May 2026. Di said: I have worked in the disability and social support sectors for more than 3 decades, in the UK and Australia. I have been a top tier leader in social support and lobbying organisations including Playgroups Tasmania, Dementia Tasmania, Homebase, Carers Tasmania, Disability Voices Tasmania and now Muscular Dystrophy Foundation Australia.
My goal is to enable a greater voice for the 40,000 Australians living with muscular dystrophy and similar rare neuromuscular conditions (NMCs). I am thrilled to be working with the Board, state member organisations and external stakeholders to assist in improving health, social and economic outcomes for people living with NMCs.
You can help people living with muscular dystrophy reach their full
potential and improve their quality of life. Donate today.
