Access All: Disability News and Mental Health

From three carers to none


Listen Later

In an Access All exclusive, we reveal that rising petrol prices are driving carers out of the profession. Nikki Fox and Emma Tracey chat to wheelchair user Natalie from Shropshire, who went from having three carers to none overnight, and to carer Louise who is considering leaving her job.

Businesswoman Caroline Casey, who topped the Disability Power List in 2021, reveals why she didn’t realise she was blind until she took a driving lesson on her 17th birthday.

And we find out what unusual job our presenters both used to do, plus why they both hate networking!

Producers: Keiligh Baker, Amy Elizabeth and Emma Tracey

Recording / mixing: Dave O'Neill
Editors: Beth Rose and Sam Bonham
