In this episode we have a chat with Sarah Wills who guides us through the problems and issues she identified whilst trying to navigate around Edinburgh and London with a broken foot. Sarah raises some interesting points all from a perspective of someone not used to restricted mobility and she discusses how the 6 weeks in the boot and on a crutch has changed her outlook and understanding. An excellent episode for anyone who is looking to understand how access and inclusion applies to everyone, everywhere.

In this epidsode we chat with Chris Nicholson, trainee QS, about the construction industry, new build dwellings that don't meet basic standards yet pass building control, and a new way of thinking for developers. In a very open a honest conversation, designers and laypeople alike will find plenty to learn and think about as we hear Chris talk about his journey from a rugby accident aged 21 to today where he is embarking on a career as a Quantity Surveyor. Chris' passion for inclusion, accessibility and building a barrier free world come across very clearly and it gives us all hope that with professionals like Chris changing the industry from the inside that there is real hope, in the very near future, of an UK wide inclusive environment.
