Only 3 days left! We hope your looking foward to hearing the amazing Sophia from Access For All Ireland as much as we are!
Make sure and listen into the brilliant #LastOneOnTheTrain this Sunday night from 7:30 RTÉ Radio 1 to hear our amazing friends from The Struggle Is Wheel as they give us a peak into their lives living in Ireland in 2024 as a wheelchair user!!!!

Unfortunately, Govt are not legally obliged to act on my #disabilityjustice motion which passed the Dail yesterday and includes support for an end to means testing. The advantage of getting it passed is it gives campaigners an extra weapon with which to put Govt under pressure.
Still quite shocked at Anne Rabbitte TD's blatant dismissal during our protest. Previous Ministers for Disability incl. Finian McGrath have always tried to engage & acknowledge DPOs and their work. That's their job and a big part of what they're being paid to do. Inexcusable.
This is indeed a mighty tool for the disability rights movement's arsenal to be whipped out many times henceforth! For Gov to acknowledge that disability allowance should be non-means-tested is historic! Thank you for your support Mick Barry TD
Thank you Mick Barry TD for your wonderful advocacy and allyship bringing forth this motion which historically forced Gov to acknowledge that disability allowance should be a non-means tested payment! 🙌 Disabled Artists & Disabled Academics Neuro Pride Ireland Access For All Ireland Disabled Women Ireland Ruth Coppinger
So proud of my #ScrapTheGreenPaper colleagues & supporters. This was a hard & difficult campaign that few have recognised but that will have an impact on the lives of many. It is a first step & we're not finished Neuro Pride Ireland Disabled Women Ireland Access For All Ireland Disability Power Ireland cír doyle
