People with Disability Australia (PWDA) announces with sadness the resignation of our President, Trinity Ford, effective from 21 October 2025, 6:00pm AEDT.
Trinity was elected to the PWDA Board in November 2024 and appointed President in January 2025. During her time as President, Trinity put her career and professional commitments on hold to lead the organisation. Throughout her leadership, Trinity has worked closely with our members and community. She has represented them both nationally and internationally to promote and advance the rights of people with disability.
Following Trinity’s resignation, the PWDA Board will commence the process of the appointment of an Interim President to serve until the 2025 PWDA Annual General Meeting (AGM) being held on Thursday 13 November 2025. Following the AGM, the Board will elect its new President and Executive Officers.
The PWDA Board extends its sincere gratitude to Trinity for her tireless advocacy, leadership, and contribution to PWDA and the broader disability rights movement. On behalf of our members, staff, and community, we thank Trinity for her service as President.
Thank you,
Daniel Flynn
Acting President, PWDA on behalf of the PWDA Board
