Profoundly disabled from a young age, Anthea wondered if she’d ever find love. Little did she know it would be through her passion for sport that she’d find Mr Right. Anthea and Michael might seem like an unlikely couple, but these two are soul mates and can read each other’s minds – ideal in a game like boccia, where communication between partners is very important.

A inspiring weekly special interest programme for New Zealanders living with disabilities.
