Enable Magazine September/October


Presenting Enable Magazine
September-October issue
The UK’s leading disability and lifestyle titl
Read the magazineAs we share the latest issue of the magazine, the Enable team continue to keep the Royal Family in their thoughts as they mourn the passing of Queen Elizabeth II.
 
Inside this issue, we’re focusing on topical problems having an impact on the disability community and spotlighting support. As the cost of living crisis continues, members of the disability community share their concerns and we spotlight a campaign making a difference. Reporter Frank Gardner talks about barriers to air travel, before we catch up with actor Adam Pearson about his current projects. 

Also inside, we learn about an illustrated book telling the stories of unpaid carers; two people with a visible difference share their experiences and how they deal with stigma; people living with arthritis highlight tips for management; and we reveal how people can get on the property ladder for less. Plus, founder of Unhidden Clothing, Victoria Jenkins, writes about the growth of adaptive fashion and adventurer Darren Edwards discusses training for the World Marathon Challenge. All of this and much more inside.
