Annual Impact Report

CatWalk has been built on the generosity of the thoroughbred racing industry. An enormous 'Thank you!' to some extraordinary supporters.

In 1977, aged just 15, Grant Sharman became the first patient in Auckland’s new Spinal Rehabilitation Unit. He was given 10 years to live. As it turned out, he spent the next 11 years in Room 104, Ward C.

It was just after 5 pm, back in 2005, when Georgie Falloon called me and said, ‘What about CatWalk?’ It was the perfect name. Not simply walking again, but strutting down the runway like we own the world.
