Elliot Caswell has cerebral palsy and, like many disabled people, struggles to find clothes that are easy to put on.
Now he is one of the models for Primark's range of clothes adapted for adults with disabilities.
The 25-year-old from Newcastle says adaptive clothing is life-changing for him and he hopes all major retailers will soon be providing their own ranges.
