Blind and deaf, and a gardener | CLOSE UP News
We're all probably a bit guilty of making rash judgements when we meet people and if you meet Merv Cox chances are you'll quickly form an opinion or two about him.
Merv is a deaf blind landscape gardener. And while hearing aids help with the deafness, Merv's blindness means some people write him off without giving him a chance.
In Merv's opinion, that's not just uncalled for, it's wrong.
With 30 years experience behind him, he believes he is as good as the rest.
Gill Higgins has a story about his pride and others' prejudice.
