3Spoonies Episode Number 54.5, 7th May 2026

With Karen Duncan , Jo O’Neil and Claire Napper 

In this community questions episode, we answer your real questions about adaptive clothing, sensory needs, and accessibility in fashion.

Adaptive clothing is often talked about in theory — but this episode focuses on what actually matters in everyday life. Drawing directly from questions sent in by our community, we explore the realities of getting dressed when clothes aren’t designed with disabled, chronically ill, or neurodivergent bodies in mind.

We also discuss the emotional and practical impact of clothing that doesn’t work — from frustration and fatigue to confidence and self-expression — and why accessibility in fashion isn’t about special treatment, but good design.
