In this episode of 'Fear Less, Do More', host Gill Hunter chats to Lyndsay Watterson, founder and CEO of Neo-Walk. After losing her leg in 2010, Lyndsay’s desire for a more personalised mobility aid led her to create Neo-Walk, an innovative company that creates stylish and empowering walking sticks. She shares her entrepreneurial journey, including the challenges and successes of expanding her business from a small kitchen operation to a global brand.


Highlights include:

  • The story behind how Neo-Walk was founded, with humble beginnings as a small business in York, and how it grew into an international brand, used by Hollywood celebrities.

    • Lyndsey’s perspectives on disability and how it makes her feel empowered, not different, allowing her to embrace doing things ‘a little bit differently’.

      • The unique opportunities and experiences Lyndsey has had, including pitching Neo-Walk on Dragons Den, performing at the London paralympics and starring in the Bad Education movie.

        • Lyndsay’s focus is on growing Neo-Walks presence within the US market, whilst also striving to take more time for herself and find balance and rejuvenation.

          • Lyndsay’s desire to pursue more creative hobbies, such as her pet cockatoo and upscaling furniture.
