Cerrie Burnell and Nancy Kline

Former TV presenter Cerrie Burnell talks to Kate about her documentary on disability in Britain and the writer Nancy Kline wants us to stop interrupting each other.

Reverend Kate Bottley presents uplifting stories about life, love and modern spirituality, alongside a great soundtrack for your Sunday morning.

This weekend she chats to former CBeebies presenter Cerrie Burnell who has made a heartfelt and revealing documentary about attitudes towards disability in Britain. Cerrie was born without the lower part of her right arm and was shocked at some of the viewer responses when she started presenting on children's TV. Cerrie tells Kate what she learnt making 'Silenced: The Hidden Story of Disabled Britain' and shares her tips and tricks as a Mum homeschooling in lockdown.

Plus the best-selling writer Nancy Kline makes the case that promising not to interrupt each other could change the world. She talks to Kate about the power of listening and tells her own remarkable story about life-threatening illness and recovery.

Plus Andrew Graystone joins us to Pause For Thought.
