1:25Now PlayingChris McCausland is an actor and comedian who won Strictly Come Dancing in 2024 as the competition's first blind contestant.
He first started losing sight as a young boy due to a genetic condition, and was fully blind in his early twenties. But he has never let disability define him.
On this episode of Ways to Change the World, he talks to Krishnan Guru-Murthy about why it was important for him to take part in Strictly Come Dancing, the frustrations and identity challenges he faced as he grappled with losing sight, and how he continues to challenge perceptions.
