Paralympian & Motivational Speaker

Paralympian Ellie Cole is like no one you’ve ever met before. After losing her right leg to cancer at age 3, in 2021 she became Australia’s most decorated female Paralympic athlete, with a record-breaking 17 Paralympic medals and an OAM. In January 2024 she was also awarded an AM for her “significant service to sport as an advocate for diversity and inclusion”.

In her 17yrs in the pool, Ellie has risen to prolific heights and, in recognition was honoured as the flagbearer at the Tokyo 2020 Closing Ceremony.

Ellie is raw and real, funny and wonderfully charismatic, refreshingly humble and completely unaware of the true inspiration she is. A popular speaker and MC, she finds ways to connect with her audiences; whether students, corporate teams or senior boards and she is incredibly passionate about the subject of diversity and inclusion, leveraging her strong platform as an athlete to highlight important causes.

She has a strong and engaged social following and is well loved by the media both here and abroad. She has appeared in countless magazines and broadcast programs across a variety of networks spanning the 7 network, the ABC, SBS, 9 and 10 and most recently fronted the Channel 9 commentary team for the Paris Olympic and Paralympics Games in 2024. She also remains a regular host on 9’s Wide World of Sports program.

Ellie is available for media and PR opportunities, corporate hosting and speaking, commentating and brand partnerships.
