    Thanks for this @Chloe_Scope.  I saw this advertised on TV the other day there.  It looks like a really good opportunity for disabled people.  I am thinking of applying.  :smile:

    I know people who have done these placements linked to the Paralympics and they are an excellent opportunity to get into the media.  I myself was part of BBc's Kick Off sports reporter scheme, which is another good option although not disability specific.  I have also accessed work placements in the past at the BBC which were ring fenced for a person with a disability and these were excellent too, so the opportunities are pout there.
