On March 4th 2016 Bailley Unahi suffered a severe spinal injury following the collapse of a crowded balcony at a Six60 concert on Dunedin's infamous Castle Street.

Trapped underneath, her life may have changed in a few fateful moments but Bailley says there is much to be thankful for.

She talks to Kathryn about the career she never knew she wanted and the sporting pursuit which she hopes will take her all the way to next year's Winter Paralympics.
