In the third episode of my celebrity chat show series, #TazTalks series, I talk with Baroness Tanni Grey-Thompson about surviving the lockdown, mental health and disability rights.
Tanni, one of the UK's most successful disabled athletes, won a total of 16 Paralympic medals, including 11 golds, held over 30 world records and won the London Marathon six times.
A TV presenter and author, Tanni is now a member of the House of Lords, and has been instrumental in advocating for the rights of disabled people, as well as being involved in the coronavirus bill.
During our chat for the show, Tanni is remarkably open about her concerns for the future and the "draconian" bill, keen to strike the right balance and speak her truth, despite not wanting to scare people.
Given the topic of mental health, Tanni provided some amazing insights from her years as an athlete to help people get through the lockdown too.
I hope you enjoy the show.
