Access All: Disability News and Mental Health

Mentally Interesting: ‘I don’t get a holiday from myself’


Listen Later

As Covid restrictions ease in the UK, our presenters share their mental health travel stories.

Why is Seaneen banned from using one of the budget airlines? Why does Mark stay in hotels instead of with family? And identical twins Claire and Laura explain why seeing the world helps them stay well.
We come up with ideas that the travel industry could implement to make life easier for people with mental health difficulties and explore why being told to get out into nature for therapeutic reasons can feel frustrating.
With Mark Brown and Seaneen Molloy
Produced by Emma Tracey.
