Jack Carroll is a highly respected diversity and inclusion speaker, celebrated not only for his comedic talent but also for his unwavering advocacy for disability representation in the media. Rising to national prominence at just 14 years old as the runner-up on “Britain’s Got Talent”, Jack broke barriers by placing his cerebral palsy at the heart of his stand-up routines—using humour to challenge stereotypes and foster understanding. His ability to blend wit with powerful social commentary has made him a trailblazer in using entertainment as a platform for inclusive dialogue.

Throughout his career, Jack has consistently championed greater visibility for disabled individuals in the arts. He won a Pride of Britain Award in 2012 for his inspirational impact, and has since built a successful acting career, with standout roles in “Ministry of Curious Stuff”, “Trollied”, and most recently “Coronation Street”, where he plays Bobby Crawford. His presence in such high-profile roles has been pivotal in normalising disability on screen and proving that talent should always take centre stage.

Jack’s accolades extend beyond performance. In 2024, he earned a BAFTA for his work on the short film “Mobility”, which tackled themes of disability and adolescence with authenticity and humour. His influence also reaches live audiences, having appeared on “Live at the Apollo” and “The Now Show”, as well as performing at major cultural and political events. Jack’s eloquence and candour when speaking about his lived experience make him a compelling and sought-after voice in the diversity and inclusion space.

Whether challenging misconceptions or inspiring the next generation, Jack Carroll brings insight, charisma, and courage to every platform he steps onto. His work not only entertains but educates, making him a vital contributor to the national conversation on inclusivity.
