I am an 18 year old who has quadriplegic CP. I am doing A levels and hope to go to Uni in September. To increase my chances I am doing an extended project at school titled '
To what extent did the media coverage of the 2012 and 2016 Paralympics lead to greater acceptance of people with disabilities in the UK.'
Can you let me know your thoughts?

Hi Sheafg

Great to have you on board - Welcome to the community. I have posted a link to the scope blog on the Paralympics that you might find interesting.
Why not post your own discussion under the disabled people section and see other members thoughts on this
Best wishes
