Disability Pride Brighton

Hello , I’ve written another letter to @antanddec about the ongoing appalling abuse of animals on @ITV programme @imacelebrity . I’ve tried to be polite but my patience has run thin . If you agree with what it says please RT . #ImACeleb

@BBCMorningLive @xandvt I have an ‘extensively torn meniscus’ for which I am awaiting surgery. Is there anything I can do to make it hurt less?

On Thursday @xandvt will be joining us to talk about knee conditions and exercises to build strength. Do you have problems with your knees? Do you have any questions about knee pain or how to relieve it? Leave a comment!

Yet again I land at @HeathrowAirport and I'm told I've got to wait Half an hour for disabled assistance. @British_Airways are you are also disgrace flying on ba575 from Milan, this is not acceptable. @GMB @BBCBreakfast do you want to help?

TV presenter says £5,000-worth of wheelchair damage caused by BA is ‘an assault’ independent.co.uk/travel/news-an…

@British_Airways Disability is a protected characteristic under Equality Act 2010. You are breaking the law by not allowing disabled people to take their paid-for return flight, just because they were not able to take the outward flight due to injury. Unlawful, unjust & shameful.

@Renmakesmusic Definitely an ADHD thing. I waste half my life doing things I don't need to do in order to avoid doing the thing that I absolutely must do. PS In Chalk Outlines, by ‘new habit’ do you mean in an ADHD hyper-focus way or in a recreational drugs/drink/something else way?

My child is banned from the school playground/canteen for her hair, its neatly braided in a natural colour, I gave them a lesson on the history of black womens hairs cultural significance of braiding, they chose violence, @BishopChalloner has a racist hair policy!!!

Solutions to the cost of living crisis 🤝 Solutions to the climate crisis @RishiSunak we need support for insulation NOW. #CostOfLivingFilm

@heidi_seidr @ahandvanish My GP said it is 13 weeks after first being diagnosed with Covid.

I think a lot of people assume #LongCovid is a continuation of the acute COVID symptoms, that just take a long time to get over. In reality it is an often delayed onset of *new* neurological, immunological, cardiovascular, and systemic symptoms. 1/

1.1 just a reminder I will never as a physically disabled woman say thanks for access needs. Last night at the Indian my card was declined I tried a few more attempts to pay and switched cards & was told it hadn’t gone through. I looked at my phone & saw my bank notifications

Pretty overwhelming to be alongside so many people I respect and admire @ndawards #Shortlist2020 nationaldiversityawards.co.uk/shortlist/

BREAKING:- #Brighton The part of the cycle lane between The Pier and West street is going to be removed. Work will begin this evening to remove 600m of the lane. The rest of the temporary cycle lane will remain in place

Some iffy language used but some interesting points made. Non disabled people fear & shy away from disability because they themselves may become disabled or ill at some point. We need to stop fearing those who are different & embrace diversity! theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

My latest @MetroOpinion now live and funnily enough I’m looking at pain - massive thanks also to @AbbiBrown92 for her contributions! Please feel free to share! #DisabilityVisibility metro.co.uk/2020/08/25/hav… @andrewrtalent

@BadgeBrighton Please retweet. The traffic changes have had a massive impact on disabled people and there was no consultation. 😢

Thank you. 🙂

“I wanted to do something related to the idea of how isolation affects mental health.” This short film called Numb was made by 15 year old Liv McNeil from Canada for a school project and is now going viral. youtube.com/watch?v=iSkbd6…
