Radio Interviews
We're often found on LBC or the David White Show on BBC Radio Cornwall chatting about fundraising or inclusive festivals or World Down's Syndrome Day or whatever is on our agenda at the time.
We are Cornwall's Pirate FM's first choice for fast comment on issues and current affairs relating to Down's syndrome. Natty was voted their Local Hero Child of Achievement of the Year 2013 for her forays into the inclusive modeling world.
You can listen to the lovely interview ‘Cornish girl with Down's models for catalogues’ here for Heart FM.
There are occasional last minute interviews for stations such as Spin1038 in Dublin or BBC Radio Devon or a little tea time chat with Sky News. You never quite know when they will hit.
