Disability Action In Islington

@LNER @DisabilityActHa It was the 17:10 out of Leeds

@DisabilityActHa Hello, we're really sorry for any issues caused. What service are you traveling on? ^Charlene

@LNER why oh why is it every time I travel on your trains is the toilet out of action. Access to a toilet is of vital importance to disabled rail passengers and for wheelchair passengers like myself do not have the a ability to access one on the other end of the train #equity #disabiltyrights #railtravel

people think art and precision are opposites... but sometimes they're the same thing 🎨

The Tory party is refusing to say who has been appointed to lead a “landmark” review of disability benefits or to provide any details of how they will engage with disabled people, more than 3 weeks after it was launched. #HelenWhately #Conservatives disabilitynewsservice.com/tories-refuse-…

A lot of you voted for me so you might as well see some of what I’m up to every week 😝 ✅ Milton Rd Estate Drop In ✅ Turnpike Lane Leak ✅ Ben Tillett Bushes ✅ Broadwater Farm Litter ✅ And more…. Hear it for yourself ⬇️

A huge thank you to everyone who attended Disability Action Haringey’s AGM today. It was fantastic to see so many members, trustees, partners, volunteers, and supporters coming together to reflect on another year of achievements and to help shape our future. A special thank you to our guest speakers,@MikScarlet @BambosMP @lmdasneves , for taking the time to join us and share their insights, passion, and commitment to advancing the rights and inclusion of D/deaf and disabled people. Thank you also to our trustees for their continued leadership and commitment, and to all our members whose involvement and support make our work possible. Together, we continue to demonstrate the power of a strong, user-led community and the importance of ensuring that D/deaf and disabled people are at the heart of decisions that affect our lives. #DisabilityActionHaringey #DDPO #NothingAboutUsWithoutUs #Community #CoProduction

Just as we'd expect experts from ethnic minorities to be working to support those from ethnic minorities, LGBTQ experts to be supporting the LGBTQ community it's time that only disabled people were hired to support disabled people. I say this after fighting to use my shower 1

Off today to speak at the @DisabilityActHa AGM. So important that disabled people get together to support each other & work together for a better society. So expect a rallying cry with a lot of laughs & a bit of anger.

The Timms Review steering group is providing organisations the resources they need to deliver their own workshops looking at key issues with PIP.   Whether you work for a charity, a disability organisation, a local support group, or want to help people in your community have their say, the Timms Review wants to hear from you.    Find out how the newly launched Workshop in a Box will put disabled people at the heart of the Review Timms Review of Personal Independence Payment: run a workshop - GOV.UK.

I’ve requested (to the Council’s Highways Department) that the LTN in West Green Ward is suspended during these works on West Green Rd, starting next week, for a month!! (Not sure why they couldn’t wait until Summer school holidays 😩) Will keep you updated!

@Arsenal @IslingtonBC council whilst you celebrate today the achievements on the field you should hang your heads in shame at your poor performance in regard the parade, no accessible viewing platform for wheelchair fans ! @SkySportsNews @BBCNews @itvnews @InclusionLondon

Secret filming in Winterbourne View showed staff abusing Disabled people in hospital. 15 years on, people with learning difficulties and autistic people can still be detained for years. We do not know how many are abused behind closed doors. Enough is enough: Free Our People Now!

Find out some of what I’ve been up to this week… ⏺️ Lordship Rec Paddling Pool ⏺️ Graham Rd Green Grass Cutting ⏺️ Broadwater Farm Block Party ⏺️ Green Gate Pub Planning Application ⏺️ Basketball Nets at Lordship Rec I tried to do it in 90 secs… I sort of did! 🫪

Has been organised in consultation with Islington Council ! Authority to hold the parade should never have been agreed without meeting the needs of disabled people, the council do not get to say not within our control it was and is !

Update we have a partial response from the executive that sadly was not adequate and references council have been in touch about the needs of disabled fans and residents and the team have been in contact with police and club. All over the FAQ of Arsenal it state. Parade

Despite reaching out to Arsenal FC, Islington Council and the Labour administration for clarification, Disability Action in Islington has received no response. As Arsenal and Islington prepare to celebrate what has been a fantastic season, Disability Action in Islington is
