How do you go open water swimming if you’re blind or in a wheelchair?
Emma Tracey explores how accessible beaches are if you are a wheelchair user, and how inclusive open water swimming is if you can't see. Some really useful and interesting info you won't want to miss in this chat with Will Behenna, Director of the Beach Access Project, and Sadie Rockliffe from the University of Brighton
And Dr Grace Spence Green is the woman who was disabled when a man fell on her from a height at a shopping centre in London. She was 22-years-old and continued her studies to become a doctor. She has a new book out and says becoming disabled radicalised her.

Produced by Kirsteen Knight
Series producer: Beth Rose
Editor: Damon Rose
And a special shout-out to our friends at BBC South East who got their toes wet by visiting the swimmers in Brighton.
