For a charity to assert that a person with dementia has “died” (before they have died) is a huge miscalculation. It’s step backwards in framing disability and describing how people living with dementia disabled are supported. It’s not “hard-hitting”; it’s repulsive. @KateLeeCEO

Disingenuous by @KateLeeCEO. How is it in the charity's best interests to spend money telling the public that dementia is the leading cause of death by saying people die many times before they die? You should pull this hideous ad. alzheimers.org.uk/news/2024-03-2…
@Allison66746425 @Neurodiversit19 I’m not one for ‘motivational quotes’ but this one popped up on my phone and it felt fitting after such a good training session yesterday - it is apparently obligatory that they come with landscape backgrounds 🤷♀️

People aren't waiting 40 hours for an ambulance because of industrial action by doctors. They're waiting 40 hours for an ambulance because the Tories are systematically underfunding the NHS.

People with a #LearningDisability from ethnic minority backgrounds die at an average age of just 34, compared to an average age of 62 for white people with learning disabilities. We cannot afford to ignore these statistics for much longer.
Utter disgrace...
Met a young lady with LD working in a cafe, next time I saw her I said "congratulations" She told me "I'm the only one they don't pay". I will never darken their door again. Paid employment for people with LD is 5.1% #SENDequity Would you tolerate this for your children
Still time to submit something...The Double Empathy Reader and The Monotropism Reader – Call for Submissions …icipatoryautismresearch.wordpress.com/2023/06/19/the…
A year ago I graduated from my PhD. It took me five years to complete & I wrote many parts of my thesis whilst in hospital. Disabled academics like myself often work on crip time. This doesn't make our contributions any less. And academia is a better place for us being in it.
We should talk less about neurodivergent *strengths*, i.e. traits useful for productivity in niche job roles, and more about neurodiverse *power*, i.e. our collective potential for generating change. This is an alternative to both deficit narratives and neoliberal ideology.
@GeorgeJulian says this is not a scandal in plain sight, because not enough people know about it, there is "systemic hand wringing" and nothing done. After 11 years there are only 20 fewer people in assessment and treatment units.
Call for submissions: The Double Empathy Reader & the Monotropism Reader This call-out might be of interest to some of our followers. Expressions of interest to the always brilliant @milton_damian …icipatoryautismresearch.wordpress.com/2023/06/19/the…
This from @stevesilberman is a moving and insightful reflection on understanding and fighting for his mother following her dementia diagnosis. Everyone concerned with neurodiversity should read it. scientificamerican.com/article/how-my…
Periodic reminder that school conditions children to an appalling lack of bodily & mental autonomy, & tells them that if they move, speak, think their own thoughts, wear what they want, or laugh with a friend without permission, they are being "disrespectful." #controlling

@DrMBotha As I said to someone else about this-
@alzheimerssoc That is a disgusting advert. How anybody thought that was appropriate is truly beyond me. You may as well add a link for dignitas. Don't you dare reply with the bullshit stock response, that just makes it even more corporate and disrespectful. I won't be donating again.
@BlackAutistics @Allison66746425 It is, and always has been, a pleasure and an honour to work with you. I have probably learned more from you and your amazing Mum Lorna than the other way around! I think a PhD is absolutely well within your ability and it would be awesome! You are now part of the team too!
"...demonstrates camouflaging as a shared social coping experience across the general population." As suggested by Goffman in the 60s. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…
@SophieLongley4 @Allison66746425 has written something on this.
@Allison66746425 I like it too, in the way it reminds us that we have to continually diversify to be inclusive.
the neurodiversity paradigm moves towards recognising disability rather than away from it and it is a sign of how hegemonic ableist ideology is that so many outsiders find it so hard to even recognise this
I've always disliked the term physical interventions as it creates a terminology that sanitises #restraint and #seclusion, these methods are not inevitable, they are not positive and not interventions @icars @endseclusion @BILD @gdmorewood
People aren't waiting 40 hours for an ambulance because of industrial action by doctors. They're waiting 40 hours for an ambulance because the Tories are systematically underfunding the NHS.
Thankyou for highlighting this issue, we need to have real conversations about what staff should be trained in and that means change @BILD_tweets @AQuinnUnbroken @endseclusion @ICARSBanRandS @shakespeare_d @MorrisonBeth
The RRN has responded to a new literature review on staff training in physical interventions, read the response at restraintreductionnetwork.org/rrn-responds-t…

@mumof3amigos Woah! These statistics have winded me. This is incredibly shocking. I’m not having a go but what does MENCAP have to say about it?
@mumof3amigos @alisonpearsonSW Thirty Four. Fucking hell :(
People with a #LearningDisability from ethnic minority backgrounds die at an average age of just 34, compared to an average age of 62 for white people with learning disabilities. We cannot afford to ignore these statistics for much longer.
@milton_damian The neurodiversity movement really needs to centre this as an issue. When I see the statistic about ND people dying young the reality of who is most impacted is often not made explicit.
@autisticrealms Needs much more attention - also points toward the potential of autistic people doing sensory audits for environments used by autistic people with learning disabilities and high support needs. This would need testing out. Project was hampered unfortunately by Covid.
Met a young lady with LD working in a cafe, next time I saw her I said "congratulations" She told me "I'm the only one they don't pay". I will never darken their door again. Paid employment for people with LD is 5.1% #SENDequity Would you tolerate this for your children
A year ago I graduated from my PhD. It took me five years to complete & I wrote many parts of my thesis whilst in hospital. Disabled academics like myself often work on crip time. This doesn't make our contributions any less. And academia is a better place for us being in it.
