This is the story of the Albatross Nippers, a small group of nippers with special needs, and their march towards creating history.

This book highlights the socially isolating and at times tragic nature of living with special needs and the increasing health gap that occurs between those living with a disability and those who are not; a gap that is often created by physical inactivity and the inability of those living with a disability to access areas to recreate, such as the beach. The book highlights how a combined effort sought to correct this problem and improve beach accessibility.
