Will is a disability rights campaigner, public speaker, writer, filmmaker, and consultant whose work focuses on normalising disability and challenging the barriers — physical and social — that exclude disabled people. Drawing on his lived experience as a terror attack survivor and wheelchair user, he explores themes of adversity, identity, masculinity, and inclusion.
He has appeared on programmes such as Good Morning Britain, Victoria Derbyshire, and Sky News, and has written for The Times, iNews, and HuffPost. His short film Yes I Can, If went viral in 2016, reaching over a million views across Facebook and YouTube.
Will brings honesty, humour, and insight to his talks, whether speaking to students or industry leaders. His storytelling helps organisations understand how to create more accessible, welcoming environments for disabled people. As he puts it:
“My world was turned upside down after becoming a terror attack survivor with a spinal injury — and I was forced to confront a harsh truth: society does not value disabled people. That needs to change.”
