3 weeks ago, the trussell trust sent me an exclusive on a report they’d put together which highlights that the number of disabled people using food banks is at an all time high in this country. I tried to get the story published but none of my contacts were interested >>>

Gulp. 🥺 There's an angry looking X on my phone where a friendly looking 🐦bird used to be. It's so out of place. I might have to move it from my first screen. #TwitterX #TwitterBird

.BBC Breakfast IMO Mike Bushell's emphasis that Sarina Wiegman might one day manage the Men's England Football team implies that it would be a higher accolade than managing the Lionesses. I beg to diifer.

Decided to visit #WestgateOnSea and was shocked by the disgusting sewage slick in the bay and on the walkway to the beach. The smell was overpowering and nauseating. We didn't stay. Such a beautiful place and such a crime. Shame on #SouthEastWater

Disability Rights UK have issued a statement in response to chancellor Jeremy Hunt remarks today on benefit claimants and the benefit system. #ToryPartyConference #costofliving #benefits

So despite telling anyone who would listen Maidstone and Tunbridge Wells Hospitals 💙 that I have POA, Maidstone Hospital still gave discharge instructions to a patient who could barely hear, wouldn't understand them, and didn't remember them. Thank you for making this carer's life a little harder. Carers UK

A wheelchair user is calling on Buckinghamshire Council to improve access to buses uk.news.yahoo.com/wheelchair-use…

When poverty and the cost of living crisis were mentioned so many times on BBC Children in Need last night, I thought using a member of the richest family in the UK to open the #BBCCiN show was an odd choice. Wealth inequality is massive in the UK and has a profound effect on life chances.

#ClimateFight this is excellent! Thank you Kevin McCloud Mary Portas & Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall So many simple easy solutions blockaded by this government. Their inaction is indefensible and actively preventing progress.

Ahead of #CatchTheBusMonth and as part of our focus on #AccessibleTransport we've launched a brand new study on the first-hand, lived experiences of #DisabledPassengers and the challenges they face accessing buses tinyurl.com/59ze6ss2

How do disabled people experience bus travel? Bus Users UK set out to explore this in new research capturing the lived experience of disabled bus passengers, funded through one of our User Research Grants. Find out what they discovered and recommend: bit.ly/3yWM5oR 🚌
