Access All: Disability News and Mental Health

Happy 'disability day' everybody!


Listen Later

Silent Witness actor Liz Carr has crowd-funded what she calls a "ramshackle cabaret" to celebrate this year's UN International Day of People With Disabilities (IDPWD). She did it because, along with her social media pals, she was upset when she had no focus for fun on the day last year.

She explains it all in this week's podcast from Ouch and the fact it's happening in a venue which is significant to the disability movement. (Scroll down to find a transcript of this programme in the Related Links section of the page)

Find out more about it, and how you can attend if you like, by listening to the programme.

With Damon Rose, Beth Rose and Emma Tracey.
