Tabitha Page is an accomplished children’s book author and passionate disability advocate based in Melbourne, Australia.
Born in New Zealand but living in Australia since 2010, Tabitha lives with autoimmune disease/chronic illness,
psychosocial disability, a neurological disorder and other health challenges,
Tabitha is dedicated to supporting, teaching, uplifting, and advocating for others navigating life with illness and disability.
In 2021, Tabitha co-founded Forevability alongside the fabulous Amy Marley. Together, they’ve built a vibrant and inclusive community of authors, illustrators, publishers, and readers who live with — or care deeply about — inclusion, chronic illness and disability. Through Forevability, Tabitha champions representation, storytelling, and connection.
As a children’s author, Tabitha has published seven books, six of which feature characters living with disability or illness. Her goal is to spark awareness, empathy, and acceptance -
showing that those who may be different from the majority are no less important or deserving of recognition.
Her book I’m a Type One Kid has been endorsed by the Type One Foundation
and was read by Sarah Ferguson, Duchess of York, on her YouTube channel.
With a background in early childhood education, Tabitha holds qualifications in child psychology and children’s services, and has years of hands-on experience caring for children with a range of health needs.
Her professional training, lived experience, and love for writing come together to inform every word she shares.
Tabitha believes, wholeheartedly, that she’s found her purpose — and feels deeply grateful to use her voice to connect with others, big and small. Whether she’s writing, advocating, or building community, her mission is clear: to promote awareness, inclusion, and the understanding that no one is ever truly alone.
Outside of her advocacy and writing, Tabitha is a passionate photographer, an unapologetic Harry Potter fan, lover of Queen music (the original), a movie watcher and a coffee-loving reader.
