‘I am here to tell you a story’

I am a person who lives with a disability and who has ridden over 11,000 kilometers on a recumbent trike.

My name is Tommy Quick. At the age of 12, I suffered a stroke, and my life changed forever.

I had to fit back into mainstream school. I did not take an ordinary pathway. I pursued a TAFE course (fitness), and then went on to a university degree, a Bachelor’s in Human Nutrition. I’m currently doing my Master’s.

I walked the Kokoda Trek in 2014; less than 0.01% have done this feat in Australia.

With the ambition and help, I created the4points.org, a registered charity with the ACNC. I wanted to raise awareness of childhood stroke and highlight inclusion through bike trekking. Just like Kokoda, I like setting outrageous goals!

I’ve got quite a few stories to tell about my journeys!

I’m also an Actor.
