Despite having a passion for animals and farming, Mike Duxbury
received only one offer from all the agricultural colleges he
applied to. The rest dismissed him instantly because he was blind.
After graduating with an impressive array of qualifications, he
became an accessibility consultant in London, but his heart was
always with the land. He decided that rather than telling people
how to run an inclusive business, he would show them instead. Join
Mike now on Inclusive Farm, the working farm in Bedfordshire that
he designed and built himself, as he describes his mission to
welcome students of all abilities, talks about the importance of
connecting with the land, and explains the different coughs of
pigs. A Life More Wild is an 18Sixty production, brought
to you by Canopy & Stars. Production by Clarissa Maycock and
recorded by Marnie Woodmeade. Our theme music is by Billie
Marten.
