Ade Adepitan encourages a week-long wheelchair challenge

TV presenter Ade Adepitan has urged non-disabled individuals to experience life for a week blindfolded or in a wheelchair to understand the accessibility challenges disabled people face. He emphasized that progress in making transport and housing accessible is insufficient, resulting in many disabled individuals being marginalized and excluded from sports due to lack of resources. Ade, who will host the 2026 Scope Awards, believes inclusive leadership and community collaboration are crucial for fostering change. He highlighted that many disabled people struggle to engage in sports because basic support and opportunities are often lacking.
