The Dorset man transforming blue space access
Will Behenna from Wimborne became a wheelchair user at the age of 16, when his triathlon training session ended in a life-altering spinal injury.
His business, Inclusive Paddleboarding, helps folks with a range of issues get to a place where they can enjoy being on the water.
He has launched the Beach Access Project to break down the barriers which prevent people with disabilities from accessing blue spaces. The survey invites people from all over the UK to share their experience of being at the beach, and what suggestions they have for improving it.
Harry Kille-Smith went to meet Will where he is found most: on the Mudeford slipway looking over Christchurch Harbour.
