Actress Model Writer Presenter Disability Consultant



A little bit about me:
I am an actress, model, writer and law graduate; not really that unusual but I am also paraplegic as a result of an accident as a teenager. I first began modelling in 1994 when I won the UK's first ever modelling competition for disabled people "Model in a Million". Since then I have worked on many different campaigns and featured in newspapers and magazines all over the world. I have also appeared on numerous television programmes speaking about modelling, acting and the portrayal of disabled people in the media. More recently I have returned to my primary passion, acting and have trained at the Central School of Speech & Drama.

This website is currently under construction so please be patient while we work on appearance and functionality.

Shannon will be featuring in the new series of How to Look Good Naked starting this Wednesday 14 July on Channel 4 at 8pm.

Shannon recently appeared in the Debenhams advertising for the relaunched Principles range designed by Ben de Lisi, the first disabled model to feature in an advertising campaign for a high street fashion brand.

And if you missed the previous series of HTLGN which inspired the Debenhams shoot you can catch it all here:
