Ellie Simmonds explores disability and adoption in ITV documentary
Paralympic gold medallist Ellie Simmonds will investigate why about 40 percent of children in the care system in England and Wales have a registered disability.
This is a marked increase compared to the rest of the population, which is eight percent, and Simmonds wants to learn why this is the case.
To uncover the truth behind these statistics, Simmonds meets families who have adopted disabled children and those who felt unable to raise a disabled child.
