In this episode of I’m Disabled… So What?!, Lauren is flying solo as co-host Heather was unwell during the recording, but don't worry, the energy is still top-tier!

We’re joined by none other than David Smith OBE, Paralympic boccia legend and proud Team GB athlete. From his instantly recognisable tricolour hair to his unforgettable medal-winning performances, David opens up about his incredible journey through elite sport, living with cerebral palsy, and the mindset that’s helped him dominate the court across multiple Games.

We also chat about disability identity, public perception, and what life is really like behind the podium. It’s inspiring, heartfelt, and just the right amount of chaos — much like David himself.
