· Updated on March 23, 2023

For the fifth instalment of INTO‘s international web series PROLIFIC, we meet British Paralympian and LGBTQ+ role model Claire Harvey.

After acquiring her disability in 2008, Harvey built upon her extensive previous sporting career to become captain of Team GB Sitting Volleyball team at the London 2012 Olympics as well as being appointed CEO of Diversity Role Models, a London-based charity that works with schools to promote LGBTQ visibility in education.

In this film, director Samuel Douek meets up with her to ask why Diversity Role Models was set up and when she plans on taking a vacation.
