‘I Like To Do What’s Not Expected Of Me’

September 28, 2017

Hannah Shelmerdine from Warrington always wanted to play a musical instrument, but her cerebral palsy made it problematic.

Drake Music, a charity which helps disabled people access music, developed a customised airharp, which enabled Hannah to play an instrument for the first time.

“It’s surreal to think that someone like me can play,” said Hannah.

“People just look and see a lot of physical barriers they can’t see beyond that.

“I like to do what’s not expected of me as a disabled young woman.”
