ICYMI: BBC Radio Norfolk interview online

As posted yesterday, I was interviewed by BBC Radio Norfolk this morning. In the interview, I talk about my experiences with shielding, what the recent Government changes mean for us and raise awareness of what it’s been like for the chronically ill and disabled during this time. You can now find a recording of the interview online.

Available for 30 days, you can listen here: https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/p08gn4g7

Skip to 1hr 18m 50s in the show to hear it in full.

I’d like to thank Versus Arthritis and BBC Radio Norfolk for the opportunity and I hope that I accurately represented those of us shielding and shone a light on the issues we face over the next couple of months.

How do you feel about the news? Let us know in the comments.
