Are you 'in the fashion' as my mum used to say? Care about how you look? And why shouldn't you, bless your heart.

Louisa Summerfield from WheelieChix-Chic - an online clothes retailer for 'wheelechair women' joins Mat and Liz on this month's Ouch Talk Show to discuss your clothing highs and woes. They're joined also by Human Hi colimnist Claire Jennings, a blind journalist with lots to say about image.

Our 'Clothes Clinic', as we're calling it, starts about 10 minutes into the show and features several disabled people who came forward with a wide range of really interesting questions for our panel. There's more to this disability clothes thing than meets the eye.

Were the panel able to send our callers home happy? Tune in and find out.

And if you know nothing about clothes, clevages seemd to get an awful lot of mentions. Accentuate the positives, ladies. Apparently. But be careful you're fastened up properly, won't ya.

Plenty of other stuff on the show besides, including: disabled pigeons, our Vegetable Vegetable or Vegetable quiz and the usual unsigned disabled artist.

You can podcast the show or listen to it on the web by clicking our play button.
