Baroness Tanni Grey-Thompson is one of Britain’s most decorated Paralympian athletes, winning 11 gold medals, four silvers and one bronze over five Paralympic Games. Tanni is established as one of the most gifted and courageous sportswomen of her generation.

Since retiring from athletics, Tanni has held many important roles in sport – including vice-president of the Women’s Sport Foundation and most recently Chair of Sport Wales.

In 2010, Tanni became an independent peer in the House of Lords, and since this time has continued to act as a prominent and vocal advocate for disability rights, welfare reform and inclusion.

She talks to Bina about the role of Boards in making cultural change in organisations, how businesses can support more disabled people into employment and what it means to be an inclusive leader.
