Defying Odds, Enabling Independence: Will Pearce on the Attento Board Revolution
Join Bill and his guest Will Pearce. Will is the founder of Attento Board. The name "Attento" stems from the Italian word for "Careful," and Attento Board's motto is all about "Helping Achieve Independence". This journey began when Will's life took an unexpected turn. In April 2017, he collapsed from Cardiac Arrest and was given a 4% chance of survival while running a 10K race. Defying the odds, he emerged with a newfound purpose.
In the pursuit of making a positive impact, the Attento Board was started with some “Covid Creativity”. Originally conceived as a cutting board and dish carrier, it evolved into something more significant—a versatile board with incredible potential for people with disabilities, children, and the elderly.
Will has since realized that Attento Board goes beyond being a solution for those with disabilities; it's a daily companion benefiting people of all ages, bringing convenience and support to households and kids alike
