Mary Anne Hobbs talks to conductor Charles Hazlewood about his work with the British Paraorchestra.

The paraorchestra formed in 2012 and have since gone on to play at the Paralympics Closing Ceremony, at Buckingham Palace, and also at Glastonbury festival.

As part of our Designs for Life series, we learn about how Charles Hazlewood has re-invented the orchestra for the 21st century, proving that music really is for everyone.
