Young, Disabled and IN CONTROL

Play video Thumbnail Thumbnail Thumbnail Thumbnail Thumbnail Thumbnail Thumbnail Thumbnail

In January 2010, the Council for Disabled Children recruited a group of 12 young people from across the country to work as young ambassadors.

The ambassadors decided they wanted to make and distribute a film to put across their points of view and challenge negative attitudes towards them. They felt the film could help redress poor media coverage of disabled young people and the issues that affect them.

The film was screened at Channel 4 in London in November, but you can see it for yourself here!
