My son’s guitar had a run in with the robot vacuum yesterday, resulting in a snapped headstock.

Glue, clamps and a little prayer later, it feels alright to me (but I’m no guitar player).

Today was guitar lesson day so hopefully its stayed together 🤞🏽

When you vote in an election of course you want as much info as possible to vote independently & privately.

As a blind person, I used a tactile voting grid alongside the audio info provided by the RNIB for the London elections.

Thrilled to be speaking at Visionary’s Annual Conference.

Looking forward to connecting with colleagues, old & new who together are building a future in which blind & partially sighted people can all live the lives they want to lead.

On Friday, the Prime Minister announced his intention to make changes to Personal Independence Payments (PIP).

Right now, many disabled people understandably have questions and concerns about how this will affect them.

Here’s what we know so far about these changes, and how…

I love hearing my little girl's excitement as she walks Kika to school, a great way to start the day.

This has definitely brightened up my morning & I'm ready to tackle whatever the day has to throw at me.

Bring it on!

I think we’re officially adopted Glaswegians now! We’re all so sad to leave the city that’s been our home for the last month - not least because of all the stuff I have to carry back - but because you’ve shown us so much love.

See you again soon Glasgow! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

So, what is it? 🤔

We had an early start this morning & managed a run in the woods before work.

Hopefully this will help them both to be nice & calm for the rest of the day!

The evidence is in. There aren’t enough accessible and inclusive playgrounds in the UK for disabled children.

Out of 1000 playgrounds investigated, only 1 in 10 were suitable for disabled children.

Have you used our Playground Accessibility Map yet?

I was worried that Quark may have a little too much energy when he came to us, as Kika has always been calm. But after a few weeks, Quark had settled down & he definitely loves having Kika as a big sister.

At 6am this morning I find them together 💛
