In this episode of I’m Disabled… So What?, Lauren is joined by Tia Shortall from Dressability Swindon to talk about adaptive clothing, accessible fashion and the real impact the right clothing support can have on disabled people’s independence and confidence.

We discuss the hidden challenges disabled people face when getting dressed, why inclusive fashion matters, and how specialist clothing charities are helping people regain dignity, comfort and self expression. Tia shares how Dressability supports the community, the emotional stories behind the service, and why clothing is about more than practicality. It is about identity, visibility and self worth.

This episode highlights disability inclusion, accessible living and the importance of removing everyday barriers so disabled people can live with confidence, style and independence.
