In case it’s a new term to you, let us start with a definition of Benevolent Bias in relation to disability. The Wiley Dictionary says “usually manifests as pity or charity, paternalistic protection, and condescending or exaggerated praise for common activities.” A new term perhaps, but not a new behaviour. We discuss.

Coldplay came to Wembley in August and we went to see them. We discuss the show and comment on accessibility, attending gigs as a wheelchair user and scooter user.

Phil gives us a health update after surgeons have been poking around, and just how unsettling this can be when you’re older.

Finally, we respond to the emails we have received from you recently and give you a preview of next month’s show.
