Our Pixie Friends- Siobhan Wilson, Victoria Point Qld
Siobhan Wilson is an inspirational entrepreneur at just 14 years of age! She is the founder and owner of a social enterprise called Our Pixie Friends, which aims to help children, especially those with medical needs, feel good about themselves, and encourages others to be kind and inclusive, all while raising money for medical research.
Siobhan was born at 27 weeks and as a consequence, has numerous medical conditions. She says she used to wonder, “Why am I not ‘normal’". When she was 6, she realised she wasn't the only one and decided to start a business to help other kids realise they are not alone, and so Our Pixie Friends was born. Her Mum didn't think it would last, after all, she had wanted to be a vet the day before!
She registered Our Pixie Friends Pty Ltd when she was 10, and at 12, published her first children's book and her website went live. This year she also started The Cozipal Project and aims to donate 1000+ gift packs to children experiencing trauma.
