How do you know when to start a race when you can’t hear the starting gun? Can you use sign language on a netball court? Where do you buy specialist equipment? Naomi, a 1st-year PhD Maths student, who is Profoundly deaf, and Nils, a 4th-year astrophysics student, who has a T47 impairment restricting strength and mobility in both arms, spill all about some unexpected barriers they have experienced as para-athletes. They join Georgia Spry, VP Sports and AU President to discuss the wider landscape of DisABILITY Sports at Cardiff University to celebrate Disability Sports Week.
