Lucy Edwards is a blind broadcaster, journalist, content creator, & disability activist and is an absolute force to be reckoned with.

As both a Broadcaster and Journalist Lucy has presented reports for the BBC on TV & radio and in 2019 she became the first-ever blind presenter to host on BBC Radio 1. Earlier this year Lucy’s 2 part BBC documentary ‘How Does A Blind Girl Go On Safari?’ took the awards ceremonies by storm, winning an RTS Award.

Always pushing for change, Lucy frequently consult in house with brands to improve their disability and inclusion strategies. Whilst an ambassador for global haircare giant Pantene, Lucy consulted closely with the team to ensure the packaging was accessible and the product is the first to feature the trailblazing technology Navilens. It doesn’t stop there, Lucy has also partnered with more of the world’s leading brands including Google, Estée Lauder, Spotify & L’oreal and has positioned herself as a leading voice for disability inclusion.

As one of Lucy’s favourite sayings goes ‘Nothing about us, without us’, and as she continues to pave the way for change, Lucy has positioned herself as a key figure in both digital and print media.
