@jodie_rawles @Dawn26467771 @CoronavirusLD .@MbeShaun "the government need to listen to us because we know what happened to us, we are the experts." #COVID @CoronavirusLD
@jodie_rawles @Dawn26467771 @CoronavirusLD "We must learn from what happened to people with learning disabilities in #COVID what happened must never happen again" @CoronavirusLD
@jodie_rawles @Dawn26467771 @CoronavirusLD Mark explains how difficult it was staying in his room for weeks on end in his residential home... I lost my temper, I regret it now, but I couldn't help it, it was the way I felt ... but zoom calls lit up my life, we had calls which was good ... @CoronavirusLD
@jodie_rawles @Dawn26467771 @CoronavirusLD Sebastian: "being brave isn't about doing everything yourself, there is no shame in asking for help. I just need to know I'm not alone. Isn't that what everyone needs to know?"
@jodie_rawles @Dawn26467771 @CoronavirusLD Rebecca talking about her experience when she was put on furlough and having to learn to work from home using teams and zoom which she'd never done before. Difficult at first but slowly got used to it and learned to do it @CoronavirusLD

'Normal life returned for most when lockdown lifted, for many with learning disabilities, services have been slow to return...will they ever come back?' Orla's sibling @b1aaroy with @SueCaton on @CoronavirusLD's vital evidence. By @Saba_Salman communitylivingmagazine.com/pandemic-effec…
Covid's enduring impact and @CoronavirusLD compelling evidence. People with learning disabilities must have the same rights as everyone else and be included in communities, says sibling @b1aaroy on sister Orla's slow return to routine. Love the photo🧡 communitylivingmagazine.com/pandemic-effec…
