Mick Henderson - STJ - S02E13
Mick Henderson is Te Awamutu Golf Club’s sole disability golfer among its roughly 400 members.
Diagnosed with a hereditary blood circulation problem in his 40s - shortly after running his sixth marathon - both his legs were amputated below the knee in an 18-month timeframe when he was in his sixties.
In every challenge though, Mick says, there are two choices.
“…you either lie down, or you stand up…” - and he is one who stands with courage.
This week we chat with Mick about his incredibly inspiring journey, his time in business, the efforts to see $50,000 raised to buy a paragolfer cart and the planned return of the Disability Golf New Zealand Open to Te Awamutu next year after it was first held there in 2023.
