Turning Awareness into Action

Though disabled people represent 22% of the UK population, just 5.5% work in broadcasting. Breaking down barriers like inaccessible sets, limited career progression and exclusionary practices requires more than talk - it demands meaningful change through inclusive hiring, step-free access, and proactive adjustments on every production.
