was a leading New Zealand disabilities rights campaigner.
She was born with spina bifida in Petone in 1930 or 1931. Aged 10 months, she was operated on by orthopaedic surgeon Dr (later Sir) Alexander Gillies, and they became life-long friends. Her early education was at home or via correspondence, but she later attended Hawera High School.
In the 1950s she married Neville Pickering, who went on serve as a Member of Parliament (1957–1960) and mayor of Christchurch (1971–74). The couple adopted three children before having one of their own, having believed that Alexia was unable to bear children.
