hullborg

I am a 6ft 7 Borg...well I'm Deaf...with coloured hair. I have been running a Facebook page called Elephant In The Room which specialises in Disabled/Deaf Advocacy connecting the Disabled/Deaf communities with venues/events/festivals.

I have been involved in advocacy for many years through my job as a Social Media Co-coordinator and realised that over the years I needed to make difference with Hull as Disability is often the Elephant In The Room.

I passionately believe in inclusivity and diversity which are the core values of The Hull Fringe 2017.

One of my biggest loves in life is music and I am proud to say that I am the page turner for my wife (who is an accomplished pianist) during performances. I would not have it any other way. I have learnt to play the piano at a young age and have tried many different instruments over the years. I have promised myself that one day, I would learn a new instrument and the guitar is high up on my list (alongside the drums...much to the horror of my family!).
