Disability advocates Alice Evans and Lucy Wood host the disability, chronic illness, and health podcast: lABLEd Podcast.

The Fortnightly episodes draw on their lived experiences, and alongside others, we offer a refreshingly personal honest, funny and occasionally dark insight into disability and difference.With special episodes focusing on Disabled People from history, lABLEd Podcast hopes to educate and entertain &amp; show you that labels are just for soup!
