The @EUCouncil adopted Conclusions on independent living for persons with disabilities. The Conclusions present a clear diagnosis of the problems but avoid solutions. It is clear: EU funds must be earmarked and conditional to best practices. Read: edf-feph.org/eu-council-con…

Trying to have a night out for a person in a wheelchair is not easy. Refused service by 2 restaurants in Rathmines. Rang @sushidadublin and was told the accessible area was "needed for takeaway collections". Bags of food prioritised over PWD. @DisabilityFed @struggleiswheel
