Access All: Disability News and Mental Health

Power to the (Disabled) People


Listen Later

This week we look at the challenges and financial risks of using the Equality Act when it comes to transport services. Anna Lawson, professor of law at

University of Leeds, and Tim McSharry who volunteers with Access Use-Ability Group give us their insights.
We talk to 17-year-old Ava Jolliffe, an artist and clothes designer who has found her way onto this year's Disability Power 100 list. She is deafblind
with other complex needs and uses bright colours and designs that work for everyone.
Kirkmoore is a new short comedy film about a residential six form college for disabled young people for BBC Three. Writer Andrew Bogle joins us, as does
actor Keron Day who also appears in the latest season of Sex Education on Netflix.
Presented by Nikki Fox and Emma Tracey. Mixed by Dave O'Neill. Producers are: Bethan Ashmead, Alix Pickles, Emma Tracey and Beth Rose. The editor is Damon
Rose, Senior Editor: Sam Bonham.
Follow and contact Nikki on @bbcaccessall on the X platform. And don't forget you can hear the latest edition by telling Alexa "Ask the BBC for Access
All". A transcript of this programme is available on the BBC site, best found by googling it.
