- Medicine
This week, the multi-talented Dr Hannah Barham-Brown talks to us about how her life changed completely when Ehlers Danlos syndrome took her from a half-marathon running medical student to a wheelchair using foundation doctor.
Now a GP registrar, TEDx speaker and deputy leader of the Women's Equality Party, it’s incredible to hear how she works with her disability to improve the lives of patients, women and other disabled people all across the country.
Her account of working on the wards in a wheelchair are essential listening for every healthcare professional as we aspire to create a more inclusive work environment. She advocates for disabled NHS employees, explaining how few have their basic legally required employment rights met and how she’s working to change that.
As deputy leader of the Women’s Equality Party she explains how she can make a big difference to the way other politicians see women’s rights to health and safety, and teaches us how equality for women would lift us up as a society.
