Heart wrenching ….. #oliverscampaign

Strong, powerful start to the Restraint Reduction Network conference. Ever thankful to Sheffield Voices and Sunderland People First #RRNconf2022 #RestraintReduction

Really excited about this public lecture. We’ve all been given so much support to develop something really entertaining for the audience. I can guarantee a fascinating and fun afternoon!

Where is this in your news bulletins BBC Newsnight BBC News (UK) This is horrendous and it doesn’t make the National news??????

Brilliant start to the BILD conference with Debbie Austin. "PBS is kind, and if it isn't kind, then it isn't PBS" #IPBSConf2023

“I MUST tell you,” said a lady with breathless excitement, stopping us suddenly as we walked down Bermondsey Street last night, “I MUST tell you that you are wearing the same clothes as that building.” and skipped off

“Autism narratives are not just stories or histories, describing a given reality. They are creating the language in which to describe the experience of autism, and hence helping to forge the concepts in which to think autism.” Autistic Autobiography Ian Hacking (1936-2023)

And it is indeed excellent. One of the first people who comes remotely close to how I feel about my body. People really do project on to you that “if you have the temerity to be fat, at the very least you should be trying not to be.” Sue Fletcher-Watson #IDontHateMyBody no really I don’t

My daughter’s BeReal for today! So lovely to have (most) of my family there for investiture (CBE for services to autism)!

Great report from #RubenReuter on Channel 4 News #Inclusion #DisabilityRights #SupportInclusion If you’d like to take part in the consultation about closing tickets offices, link below. If you need assistance to take part call: 0300 123 2350 transportfocus.org.uk/ticket-office-…

"Some sensory issues may be more pronounced for autistic people with intellectual disabilities but more difficult to assess from the perspective of an onlooker unless clearly indicated through the autistic person’s actions." tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.31…

£18 billion spent on building the brand new Elizabeth Line, and because the ticket office was closed today I couldn’t get on a train. Absolutely mind-boggling that this new line requires a manual boarding ramp and there are seemingly times where there are no staff?

Fab work getting celebrated round our way! Love this service #socialcare #qualityoflife

Worth a read - a good insight into how logic can become so ableist, losing sight of what people actually need. #ableism
