Access Coordination, News /

So now the series has started I can officially let you lovely people know that I was in fact working with those pesky Taskmasters again for Season 18 of the UK show helping make sure that the amazing Rosie Jones had all her access requirments met. It is always fun to work with the Taskmaster team across all the different challenges they set up making sure they are acessible for the contestants while also making sure the laughs come from the comedy of the situation and not ableism. It’s going to be a heck of a series make sure you watch it! If you can’t watch it on TV make sure you catch it on All 4

Sophie Morgan’s Fight to Fly

Access Coordination, News /

Last night you may have seen on Channel 4 Sophie Morgan’s Fight to Fly. If you did then you will aready know it’s a documentary about the challenges faced by Disabled passengers when trying to fly.  Safe to say it’s not easy and as someone who has flown myself on multiple occasions I know some of the challenges it represents. That’s why when I was asked to help access coordinate this project I had to say yes. Without giving to much away it was a huge challenge for so many people on so many levels and this documentary is well worth watching! You can now see it on Channel 4’s Youtube channel.   So get watching!!!
