Next time you ask “how was your holiday?” bear in mind I’ll have experienced most of what's on the #FightToFly doc made by the brilliant @sophmorgTV and friends just to get there and back. Hope the AATA becomes law so everyone has #RightsOnFlights✈️♿️ channel4.com/programmes/sop…

As part of a @Channel4 documentary, disability advocate Sophie Morgan talks about her inspiration to launch ‘Rights on Flights’ and campaigns for airlines to be held accountable for poor treatment of disabled passengers.

Today only! Krispy Kreme is giving away FREE original glazed doughnuts to celebrate dough-mocracy. Simply pop into one of its shops and say "I voted" – there's no purchase necessary. 🍩 It's the second most important decision you'll make today 🤣

I was deliberating taking part in the mum’s race #sportsday Uphill & grass in a wheelchair isn’t easy 🙈 I did it and look at this for support 🥰😲👇🏻 #JustDoIt ♿️ doesn’t have to mean you must ‘sit out’ My heart melted when my daughter said she was proud #last ❤️

💭 Do you include me? People with a learning disability tend to have fewer opportunities for socialising than the general population. ❌ We're increasingly finding that people with a learning disability say they feel uncomfortable online due to actual or potential abuse.

#Oliverscampaign A person who does not speak words CAN communicate in lots of other ways. We just need to slow down & give time to really listen with our eyes, ears, hearts, and minds Treat people with respect & dignity

If you missed this last Friday: watch it! It’s the most wonderful, moving, joyous, authentic and respectful interview I’ve seen in years. How wonderful to have such positive representation at a prime time TV slot! Thank you Michael and all the interviewers! @BBCOne more please!

I’m wiped out with a virus right now but just want to say how wonderful it is to see the fantastic and really moving responses to #TheAssembly last night. I feel very lucky to have been a part of it.

This year's #WorldDownSyndromeDay is a call to 'End The Stereotype' –@CoorDown's video perfectly sums it up.🩵 As OTs we support people to do the things they want and need to do, finding solutions and never assuming they can't. Warning: swearing

If we have positive assumptions about people with Down syndrome, we'll give them more opportunities. And maybe these positive assumptions will become reality. #AssumeThatICan #WDSD24 #WorldDownSyndromeDay #EndTheStereotypes
