“So well written and easy to read”

Every reader of my book helps push schools, workplaces & communities to recognise:

Colour Blindness is a disability

An access issue requiring adjustments

A health and safety issue for us all.

Have you ever had any training on Colour Blindness? Was it part of your PGCE, a seminar on SEND or CPD session?

3 years ago today we went to Westminster to demonstrate the effects of colour blindness to MPs. Today we are no further forward. Thousands of children are still being let down

⚠️ 9 years ago today…

We walked into the Dpt for Education to make the case for something that should not need fighting for:

👉 That screening for colour blindness must be reinstated in schools.

Nothing has changed!

🏉 Six Nations kit change:

Last weekend, Wales vs. Ireland looked different.
Was kit change “unnecessary”?

👉 Would you tell a wheelchair user to get out of the stadium?
No!

🏟️ Inclusion is inclusion.

🟠 "Is this orange or is THIS orange?" 🟢

That was the question my son asked when I first realised he was colour blind.

Colour Blindness affects millions.

📖 My book gives practical tips for parents, teachers & DEI professionals

When colour is not presented accessibly, it can create barriers to learning, understanding, safety, and overall achievement 😞

Listen to understand the impact colour blindness has🎧

“Most children affected by this SEND are boys, so they’re persistently exposed to in-direct sex-discrimination due to common teaching practices that rely on colour.”

🧙Buona Befana! 🧙

As we head back to work today Italy celebrates epiphany!

When I was little my Nonna would leave sweets in a shoe and I carry this tradition on with my own children. As if they haven’t had enough chocolate!

Traditions are so important though aren’t they?!

⭐️No one knows what anyone is capable of learning unless information is presented in a way that is fully accessible to them
