Episode notes

Matthew Layton presents Studio 1 - Vision Australia Radio’s weekly look at life from a low vision and blind point of view.

On this week’s show…

Over the last couple of weeks here on Studio 1, you may have noticed we’ve been coming up against some issues of a legal bent.

First there was the matter of jury service, and how blind and low vision people are often excluded from taking part, and last week this show’s very own Mental Health and Safety Manager, Australian registered, lifeline certified counsellor Tammey Candeloro took her university to the Australian Human Rights Commission.

So Matthew decided that it was time to get some professional help - on those two issues specifically and on disability law in general - and enlists the services of disability rights firebrand Natalie Wade, Founder of and Principal Lawyer at Equality Lawyers in Adelaide.
