The five time Paralympic champion Hannah Cockroft invites Abby Hollick for a duvet day in her bed overlooking the stunning hills of Halifax.

Get cosy as Hannah chats sexism in sport, growing up in an able-bodied world and preparing for Tokyo 2020. She also discusses the impact of her first loss, why she keeps her gold medals in socks and how she nearly died at birth.

Plus, she shares her thoughts on sponsorship in Paralympic sport, why she continues to fight for equality and why she wants to change the public perception of disability.

Hop into bed as Hannah and Abby chill out in her childhood bedroom (which, if Hannah’s mum is reading this, is very tidy!)
