Dr Hannah Barham-Brown made the news recently after revealing she couldn't afford the fairly modest 拢2,000 wheelchair she wanted but managed to raise the money through online crowdfunding in just 24 hours. She says what was being offered for free wasn鈥檛 fit for purpose.

Barham-Brown talks about navigating a busy hospital on wheels and how she is very used to talking about disability because many of her family were disabled but not with the same impairment as her, Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (which she explains in fulll on the programme).

She has learnt some unexpected things in 18 months of using a wheelchair, including the fact that it can make your boobs bigger.
