National Living Wage, Blind Taekwondo Master
We speak to a woman who's blind but also has celebral palsy, about the rising cost of care now the Living Wage has gone up. And we hear from the UK's only blind taekwondo Master.
We hear from Linn Berwick in Suffolk about her concerns to do with the rise in the National Living Wage. She's blind and also has cerebral palsy. Although she supports the Living Wage, it means that she has to increase the hourly wage of the people who look after her. She fears it will put her care at risk because she won't be able to afford it. And Peter White gets into a fight with the UK's only blind taekwondo Master. But don't worry: no one was hurt in the making of this programme!
