'Little and often' - Best Of 2025
Access All: Disability News and Mental HealthAvailable for over a year
In our pick of the year's best interviews on Access All, we look back at a year of perceptive interviews by Emma Tracey with great people and their great thoughts on living this disabled life. We hear from author of The Vulpine, Polly Crosby, who has cystic fibrosis and tells us she writes "little and often" so she can write comfortably with the condition she has. Comedian Chris McCausland now feels he can talk openly about being blind after the emotional experience of winning Strictly Come Dancing. And comedian Harriet Dyer who is always really open about mental illness tells us about the night she nearly died twice - though it had nothing to do with what was going on in her head. There's even more than that, and each have their own great insights that we recommend wholeheartedly as a Christmas uplift. Yours sincerely, the Access All team Presenter: Emma Tracey Mixed by: Dave O'Neill Produced by Alex Collins Editor: Damon Rose
