The musician with multiple sclerosis (MS) uses a wheelchair but hasn’t been able to leave his sixth-floor flat because the lifts are broken. In an Access All exclusive, Scope reveals the extent disabled people experience negative attitudes when they’re out and about, in its biggest ever survey. Naomi tells Nikki Fox and Emma Tracey about the threat to tip her out of her wheelchair while Shani recounts how she deals with unwanted filming. And actress and TV presenter Samantha Renke reveals she is now a media triple-threat as she becomes a published author.Produced by Beth Rose, Keiligh Baker and Emma Tracey Recorded and mixed by Dave O’Neill The editors were Damon Rose and Jonathan Aspinwall
