Locked away in Ukraine’s orphanages - a podcast by BBC Radio

Long before Russia invaded Ukraine, the country was dealing with a problem - the abandoning of disabled people to institutions that weren’t fit for purpose.
In a collaboration with Ukrainecast, Nikki Fox and Emma Tracey hear from the BBC’s Dan Johnson and producer Ruth Clegg about the reality of these institutions and their investigation into them with Disability Rights International.

With thanks to the Ukrainecast team
Recorded and mixed by Dave O’Neill and Emma Crowe
The editor was Jonathan Aspinwall
