♿️ As Chair of the Assembly Committee on People with Disabilities, I am fighting for key investments in this year’s budget:

✔️ Fund the 2.7% targeted inflationary increase
✔️ Expand housing, childcare, healthcare access for DSPs
✔️ Create incentives that help workers to live & work in their communities

♿️ As were people with disabilities. Usually it's barely mentioned. According to the US Holocaust Memorial Museum, "more than 250,000 people who had disabilities, including about 5,000 children, were killed."

It's not about competition, but a warning.

♿ Disability is one of the largest minority groups in the U.S., and many disabilities are nonvisible. In San Antonio, nearly every room includes people with access needs.

Small shift with big impact: ask about access needs on registrations and build in one real change for your next event.

Funding approved for specially equipped toilets, improving access and inclusion for disabled people ♿🎉

People with profound disabilities and complex needs will have greater freedom and independence with the development of 59 new Changing Places Toilets across Scotland.
Quote box with teal background and big orange quotation marks around it, by Celia Tennant, Chief Executive at Inspiring Scotland: “We were delighted by the strong response to the Changing Places Toilets Scotland Fund, which shows the urgent need for more accessible facilities across Scotland. Inspiring Scotland is proud to manage this fund on behalf of the Scottish Government, and to work alongside expert partners like PAMIS (Promoting A More Inclusive Society) to ensure the funding delivers maximum impact. Access to toilets is a basic human right, and these projects will make a real difference to people who require additional support, and their families.”

Blue Badge* Myths – Busted

*a blue badge is what a disabled parking badge/permit is called in the UK

#Disabled #Disability #Hiddendisability #Invisibledisability #chronicillness #hiddenillness #invisibleillness #Spoonie
Disability Rebellion @DRDisabilityReb 🛑 Blue Badge Myths – Busted ♿🚗 Disabled people are facing increasing harassment for using Blue Badges. Let’s get the facts straight. 🔴 Myth 1: “You don’t look disabled.” ✅ Fact: There is no such thing as a disabled ‘look’. Many disabilities are invisible, fluctuating, or not obvious to strangers. 🔴 Myth 2: “Blue Badges are only for wheelchair users.” ✅ Fact: Blue Badges are for people whose disabilities affect mobility, pain, fatigue, breath, balance, safety, or ability to walk distances — not just wheelchair users. 🔴 Myth 3: “If you can walk, you shouldn’t have a Blue Badge.” ✅ Fact: Being able to walk is not the same as being able to walk safely, repeatedly, or without severe pain or exhaustion. 🔴 Myth 4: “People just get Blue Badges easily.” ✅ Fact: The application process is strict, evidence-based, and often stressful. Many disabled people are wrongly rejected and have to appeal. 🔴 Myth 5: “Blue Badge misuse is widespread.” ✅ Fact: Fraud exists, but it is rare. Media outrage vastly exaggerates the issue, while ignoring the real harm caused by harassment of legitimate badge holders. 🔴 Myth 6: “Challenging people helps protect disabled parking.” ✅ Fact: Public policing harms disabled people, not fraudsters. Enforcement is the responsibility of local authorities - not strangers in car parks. ⚠️ Harassing someone over a Blue Badge is discrimination. You are not entitled to medical details. You are not entitled to judge. 📣 Disabled people don’t owe you proof.

My Holiday wishes go to the ones who feel alone. Ones who are marginalized and in need of love. Who've been hurt by ICE and other right-wing groups. Let's tax the rich, support LGBTQ+ causes, ppl with disabilities and POC.
Let's hug one another this Xmas season. 🏳️‍🌈♿🎄

Women with disabilities must be at the center of inclusion not as an afterthought, but as leaders, decision-makers and change-makers.
True inclusion means access, dignity, and equal opportunities for all women. Nothing about us without us. ♿
