About Us

LetstalkNeuro is a podcast and YouTube channel for those with a neuro injury, illness or condition. Also for family, friends, health professionals and anyone with an interest in the world of Neuro. Join us as we dive deep into the neuro world – interviewing professionals, experts and sharing stories.

This podcast is brought to you by Sarah Orr and Gemma Eves. They (Gemma and Sara) have known each other for 5 years through work. They both have a passion to help people understand different disabilities and conditions and spread the word to bring this to the mainstream.

Sarah sustained a spinal cord injury when her neck was broken over twenty-five years ago and has a wealth of knowledge regarding all thing SCI related.
Post-injury, she returned to school, going on to obtain a BSc at the University of Edinburgh before moving to London to work.

She has travelled extensively, worked and volunteered abroad, and studied for a MA in human rights at the University of London. During her career to date, she has worked and volunteered for several disability organisations and human rights organisations. She has experienced the highs and lows of spinal cord injury(she has skied, skydived, scuba dived,

And she has survived multiple surgeries since her injury including over a dozen major operations and a dose of Botox poisoning!

Sarah lives with her dog in SW London.

Gemma is the owner of Neuro Massage. A mobile massage service that specialises in treating people with neuro disabilities.

She qualified as a Sports Massage Therapist in 2001 in Australia. She has worked with patients with neuro disabilities for over 10 years and previously has worked as a carer.

Gemma is passionate about helping others and supporting people to achieve their fullest potential, to fulfil their goals and to achieve optimal health. Gemma enjoys engaging in alternative therapies offering a holistic approach to her practice. Her love of travel and immersing herself in other cultures will make her clients feel at ease and welcomed.

Having worked with a range of people with neuro disabilities Gemma realised information about the Neuro world is scarce, confusing and hard to find, being in such a fortunate position to know so many incredible professionals Gemma decided to start this channel with Sara, interviewing people and assisting to close this gap.

Angel is arguably the cutest, and definitely a most demanding member of team Let’s Talk Neuro. 

Requiring near-constant attention, treats and walks, along with regular deep tissue massage(yes- you read that right!), she isn’t active on all of our podcasts and YouTube videos, but pay attention and her presence can often be heard in the form of squeaks and whines and the occasional drink of freshwater (she does like to keep hydrated at all times).

Angel graduated doggy daycare in 2016 and since then has shown many skills which most notably include, but are not limited to, chasing squirrels, sharing muddy pawprints and XXX.

Sarah rescued Angel from Battersea Dogs Home in 2012, and soon after meeting, Gemma became Angel’s pawmother (doggy godmother).

Angel’s boundless enthusiasm for life is infectious, she has a loving nature and we hope you’ll enjoy getting to know her too!
