Here at Access4u, we pride ourselves on a key practice principle of exploration. Exploration, in this case, means continually educating ourselves about the disability sector.
This not only includes upskilling to become better professionals and learning from each other and our customers - it also includes learning from those with lived experience outside our organisation. This involves consuming content across multiple mediums about disability.
So, we have put together this blog that spotlights some of our favourite podcasts that are created by or focus on real people with disability. See our list below....
