Sex worker Olive Pearl and her client Gavin Thorneycroft, who has cerebral palsy, are speaking out to try and break the stigma around sex with a disability.
The pair, who are now good friends, are encouraging others to be more open-minded and understanding.
Gavin, 32, first reached out to 30-year-old Olive for a session seven months ago, in February 2021, and he’s been a regular client ever since.
