25-year-old Jazz Turner is a Team GB Para Sailor from Seaford, with her second in command, Golden Retriever Phoebe! Phoebe helps Jazz to live her life to the full, and together they help others too.
Jazz was diagnosed with a life-limiting progressive condition, hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, which causes her joints to dislocate, when she was 18. The condition also affects many other of her bodily systems and she has to be fed intravenously. But thanks to her assistance dog Phoebe, a five-year-old Golden Retriever – who is also a rescue dog – Jazz can go about her daily life, despite her disability. Phoebe alerts Jazz to her fainting episodes and seizures, and gives her independence back. They sail and even paddleboard together!
