IT IS astonishing to realise that Joanne O’Riordan, the inspiring young Irishwoman born without limbs, is still a teenager. She has achieved more in her 19 years on this earth than most people do in a lifetime.

Cork disability campaigner Joanne O’Riordan has been nominated for an awards scheme which recognises outstanding contributions by young people across the world.

He’s just 4ft 7in in height, bald, not much of a talker, and almost impossible to cuddle, but the new guy in Joanne O’Riordan’s life might just be the man of her dreams.
