Today’s question is: When it comes to disability and chronic illness, is peer support risky?

 I’m in conversation with Amy Dickinson. Amy is a former NHS worker, in the last six months Amy has set up online chronic illness support community DoItOurselves, and is working to challenge the role of patients in healthcare provision.
