On 18 January 2023, ABLE2UK will host a huge event in central London to launch a nationwide campaign highlighting the rarely talked about issue of loneliness within the disabled community.
The #StopTheShadow campaign has received the backing of a number of high-profile celebrities urging the government to make disabled awareness and the subsequent issues which are endemic to that community, compulsory within the national curriculum.
At 6pm on January 18th a short film, starring some of the biggest names in the entertainment business, will be broadcast on the huge, internationally renowned, advertising screen in the heart of Piccadilly Circus.
Once the screening has concluded, NEIL MORRISSEY, one of the UK’s best-loved actors, and star of Men Behaving Badly & The Line of Duty, will host an evening of live music and discussion at the legendary Hard Rock Cafe, in, London.
The musical headliner will feature performances from acclaimed singer/songwriter/activist FRANK TURNER with support coming from rising Essex duo WILSWOOD BUOYS.
Comedian CHRIS McCAUSLAND will also join Neil onstage to talk about his incredible journey to become one of the UK’s fastest-rising stars ahead of his new Channel 4 travel show The Wonders of The World That I Can’t See.
Also joining Neil will be paralympic swimming gold medallist ELLIE ROBINSON MBE who won gold and bronze at Rio 2016 and won the BBC Young Sports Personality of the Year that same year.
