    2021: My Yearly Recap

    Each year I like to end my final blog post with a little recap of the past 12 months. With our media filled with so much doom and gloom, it’s easy to forget all the little things we have achieved throughout the year. And as you know, I always like to use my platform to…

    Life Update: Becoming a Mentor & Writing for Access Cornwall

    Sometimes you just need to wrap yourself up in a tortilla blankey and tell yourself everything will be ok! Hello strangers, it’s been a while! Bit chilly isn’t it… Today I felt like writing a blog post, which is not something I’ve done a lot of recently. How can I call myself a blogger when…

    ‘Living with SMA’ Podcast

    I’m not gonna lie, I’ve never liked the sound of my own voice… Whilst my radio experience has definitely helped me with confidence, there has always been something about podcasts that terrify me. In the past I have been asked to feature on several different shows, and 9 times out of 10 I always say…

    National Highways: Access Guides for Motorway Services

    When I started my blog back in 2017, I could only ever dream about writing a post like this. Whilst my blogs can be cheeky at times, I always wanted to use my platform to raise awareness and be a voice within the disabled community – hence why I am so selective with the brands…

    If you follow me on social media, then you will know that I was recently invited as a guest on the latest episode of The Muscle Help Foundation’s “In Conversation With…” series.

    My Wheelchair Accessible Vehicle

    Next year marks the 10-year anniversary since I passed my driving test and I can honestly say that it is still one of my proudest achievements to date. The ability to drive is something I will never take for granted, as growing up it was not something I ever thought I would be able to…

  • Interviewing the Mayor of Truro

    Interviewing the Mayor of Truro

    As part of my Journalism course last year, I was required to carry out interviews and write real-life news stories as part of my assessment. So I thought… who better to speak to than the local town Mayor?! After doing some research online, I then came to realise that the Mayor of Truro is in…

    June / July Diaries – 2021

    Well well well… hello strangers. Apologies for leaving it so long since my last diary update – I’ve actually been quite a busy boy! As well as my usual college work and radio shenanigans, I’ve also been doing lots of writing for other organisations recently, which has been really exciting. But fear not, this platform…

    My Thoughts on “Freedom Day”

    Whilst many people are excited by the thought of “Freedom Day” on July 19th – aka the removal of face masks and UK social distancing restrictions – I for one am not… Now I don’t mean to sound like a party pooper, but has Covid just magically disappeared overnight? NO, I didn’t think so. Firstly,…

    May Diaries – 2021

    It feels so good to finally say this… I am now officially excited for summer! Now that I have started to venture out a little bit more – and the sun has decided to make an occasional appearance – life finally feels like it is heading back in the right direction. Whilst I don’t have…
