Carousel TV is an ambitious new project giving learning disabled artists a national platform to share their creativity with the viewing public.
Following an incredibly challenging 18 months for learning disabled people and for the arts in general, Carousel wants its TV show to demonstrate the resilience of its community of artists and share their lived experience.
With just 6% of people working in the UK TV industry having a disability, Carousel TV is ground-breaking in its inclusive production process, with a team of learning disabled media enthusiasts gaining hands-on experience in directing, editing and filming the sequences.
The programme showcases the talent of learning disabled musicians, filmmakers, performers and artists in short sketches and scenes, and captures the spirit of irreverence, honesty and openness that underpins Carousel’s day to day work with learning disabled artists. It opens up a whole new way of looking at the world.
Carousel TV is a partnership with Latest TV, broadcasting on Freeview channel 7 and Virgin Media 159.
Join us for our second episode on Saturday 30th October at 7pm.
