Cecilia is passionate about basketball and is a big fan of her local WNBL club Bendigo Spirit.
One day, she hopes to interview star player Kelly Wilson live on Phoenix FM, where Cecilia works as a volunteer presenter with Distinctive Options’ own radio show The CD Rack. The show has been running since 2017 and provides opportunities for Bendigo participants to research areas of interest and develop public speaking skills in a live studio environment. Support staff encourage and assist where necessary so that everyone’s voice is heard.
“We also get to play music. One of my favourite bands is Cold Chisel,” says Cecilia, who is now quite at ease in the studio. She delights listeners with her relaxed style of reporting on the weather of the day and the latest WNBL game results. Cecilia is very much a team player herself and enjoys the social connections made through participating in group activities such as this. Listen in by tuning into Phoenix FM at 106.7 FM every Wednesday from midday. Go Bendigo Spirit! Go Cecilia!
