Come Together

In this vibrant edition, we’re passing the mic to people living with disabilities and complex conditions – sharing their experiences in their own poignant words.

You’ll hear from a Big Issue vendor who’s making public transport more accessible; a Tourette’s advocate adapting his story for the big screen; the CEO of an arts organisation for people with complex mental health; and a PhD student sharing their perspective on difference and identity.

Everyone’s welcome to this party – a celebration of those who are making our world more inclusive, functional and fun for all of us!

More highlights in this edition:

    • Meet the beloved street cats of Istanbul in a purrfect Big Picture series
    • We talk Deadloch season two with Aussie comedy creators The Kates
