Jack from Spinal Injuries IRL speaks of his own experience and as a wheelchair user shares some stark facts, "If I want to use the Dart, I have to give 24 hours notice". He feels like a second class citizen. Changes are needed #myneurorehabteam

Am I worried personally about my benefits being cut? Honestly if it gets to me then they'll have gone so far to the bone it'll be a genocide. I'm shouting about it because EVERY disabled person deserves support. And yes, mental illnesses are real disabilities.

How is that even possible when a wheelchair is taken literally at the plane door on an ambulift? Flying with Ryanair this month after doing it a lot of times, and I would never have thought losing a wheelchair was even possible 😤 #Wheelchair #Travel Dublin Airport

In Ireland, families like mine have to beg for beach access. We have to deal with lazy excuses & umambitious Co Councils who grant dogs better access to our beaches. Beach mat roll out should be the norm for an island nation. Teresa Mannion Tourism-Culture-Arts-Gaeltacht-Sport-Media

Got a letter saying my Disability Allowance is being stopped because my husband and I earn less than €80 over the weekly threshold, so I no longer qualify. Happy Wednesday.

Tanni Grey-Thompson The Sun Travel⛱ These are our new train carriages which will be operational by the end of the year. Currently they are building out a few station platforms that are not level but by the end of the year it will be all level boarding on our Dart train line. This should be the norm now!
