  • Today's episode features TV presenter and disability champion Mik Scarlet.


    Mik is a broadcaster, journalist, actor and musician, as well as an expert in the field of access and inclusion for disabled people. He has been voted one of the most influential disabled people in the UK, and was one of the first television presenters in the world with a physical disability.

    In his early years, he followed his passion for music, forming bands that toured Europe and writing music for TV, radio and adverts. During a live performance he was spotted by a TV producer and offered a job as a TV presenter. By 1990, Mik was becoming a well known face in the media, one of the first generation of disabled onscreen talent. He won awards, including an Emmy in 1992, and went on to have a media career that lasted well in the 2000s.
