‘What if we close ticket offices, but have staff available at a designated and accessible point, with a hearing loop, on hand to provide assistance, able to take cash payments, and able to sell all possible rail products?’ That sounds familiar… 🤔

Transport for All Will this place be so obvious that blind and partially sighted ppl will find it? Will it be in the closed ticket office by any chance? It's the only building at our station other than standing out in the elements.

I think we are headed very rapidly towards an unstaffed, unsafe railway. It used to belong to all of us, yet now our ability to travel on an equal basis - or at all is being removed. #SaveTicketOffices

"The plans to scrap ticket offices at stations across England will only add to the anxiety millions of visually impaired people already feel about using public transport," says @GuideDogs mirror.co.uk/travel/news/vi…

Overheard in the bus station: “Mammy! That’s a guide dog! They help blind people and we can’t touch them when they’re working” Kids get it. More than some adults.

Medical staff: “You have to accept that you have a disability and your quality of life is less.” Me: “I accept I have a disability. What I will never accept is others telling me that my quality of life is less.” The devaluation of quality of life based on disability is ableism.

As the “consultation” on ticket office closures draws to an end, I’ve been reflecting on how disabled people are repeatedly asked to justify our own rights to (largely) non-disabled decision makers, and how this power imbalance makes me feel. 🧵

This isn’t just Alt text. This is M&S inspired Alt text from RNIB. Lots of people have asked me how much detail Alt text should go into. This is your answer.

Did you know that not all forms of blindness result in complete darkness? Many people who are considered blind have some perception of light and shapes. Blindness varies, with some people experiencing complete blindness and others having varying degrees of sight. #FactFriday

it’s such a simple thing but reading a calendar can be challenging on phones and computers. And that’s where this little gem comes in. RNIB sells this braille pocket calendar. Check it out shop.rnib.org.uk/2024-braille-p…

Thousands of people with sight loss remain #OutofSight in the hidden scandal of vision rehabilitation. I call on all UK political parties to commit to ensuring blind and partially sighted people get the support they need, when they need it: rnib.in/OutOfSightT

People are so up their own arse when it comes to disability. Everyone and I mean everyone is one birthday, fall, slip or step away from becoming disabled. Inclusion helps everyone eventually. It may not help you now but It will.

I've taken action and shared my concerns with my MP about the proposed changes to disability benefits, will you? rnib.in/PIP25X
