Ava at the Disability Power 100 awards in London in Nov 2023. A teenager from Broughton has been nominated for a National Diversity Award. Ava Jolliffe,
, 17, is deafblind and a wheelchair user and she has been nominated for the Positive Role Model Award for Disability for her efforts in changing perceptions of Deafblindness.Alongside this, she has also been nominated for an All 4 Inclusion award, for disability personality of the year.
Her latest show, ‘Paper View’ is a collection of able and disabled people from mixed backgrounds, promoting the message that art is not just for the visually able in both creation and contemplation. Without using a BSL interpreter she has considerably less ability than others to be physically vocal, however, Ava is not allowing this challenge to get in her way. As well as her artwork, she is locating a publisher for her 1st children’s book aimed at increasing inclusion and understanding of deafness in children’s literature.
