We know that many universities are not accessible, but we need more info. @ChangeDisabled are on the case with a big survey. If you're a disabled student at a UK university, please complete this survey. Bonus points if @UoLStudents complete it!

"Accessibility and usability are inseparably joined" - @timberners_lee #axecon2022 #axecon #a11y
Thoroughly enjoyed @GarethFW presentation today at #AxeCon2022 While I wholeheartedly agree that 'Enjoyable' should be a WCAG principle, I'm not sure what the success criteria would look like 😂
Nearly 1 in 5 people have a disability; that should not prevent access to online content. Here’s why we think accessibility is crucial passio.co.uk/2021/12/16/why… Tell us about sites that are great and leading the way @flowergirl_lon #Inclusion #AccessibilityAudit #Passio #a11y
Thanks so much for your time and input!

Thanks @WeArePassio for publishing this article I wrote a while back on accessible DIY - Tools Tips Technique & Technology. I hope it inspires someone - you can do anything if you only set your mind to it #blind #DIY #technology #accessibility passio.co.uk/2022/02/10/diy…
A commonly held belief that "Autistic people cannot empathise". What if it the problem is not with autistic people but the mismatch between "neurotypical" and "autistic" world? How do we design for it? #autistic #Neurodiversity #designthinking passio.co.uk/2021/12/07/ove…

The rhetoric around disability benefits is getting nastier and nastier. Almost half of people in poverty are disabled. Meanwhile daytime TV paints disabled people as a drain on taxpayers, and questions their right to support. ❌ We can’t let this narrative go unchallenged.
Last few weeks I’ve been finding hydration difficult… not critical but a little frustrating. Going to pay lots of attention to it today and see if I can get it trending in a good direction again :)
One massive success last night during transport drama was this.. it’s the little things but this cabbie (Laurent?) was amazing, he parked his car far enough from the curb to make sure the ramp wasn’t too steep. Before I got to him. Didn’t have to ask, argue or plead my case! 💥
He’s hit the big time you know - Zephy is gonna love it 💥
I’m gonna be on an episode of Bluey! This Sunday April 9th, I’ll be the voice of a cricket commentator on an episode called Cubby. You can see it at 8am and 6.20pm on ABC Kids and ABC iview. @OfficialBlueyTV @ABCTV
Really lovely start today. Super smooth & getting into a nice groove! Exercise day today. Ebike ride to cafe, play on Mac, ebike back for a call :) If I can still stand up later, I’m also keen to try my DIY standing desk for some 3D printing. See how it goes. Much woosh :)
Slowly moving away from ‘autism’ things as I find myself less & less comfy with the concept. I’m more aligned with broader ND stuff these days It’s a bit odd how identity changes over time. I’m kinda going with it and seeing where things end up. It may go in a loop :)
ICYMI: New digital accessibility resource ARK (Accessibility Resource & Know-How) for institutional staff of #HigherEd and #ThisIsFET was launched yesterday at the #AHEAD2022 Conference with thanks to @SOLASFET #DigitalAccessibility #EdTech #TEL ahead.ie/ARK
🚨 Got a heck of a thread ready to go about how expensive discrimination can be for a company when they don’t want to listen to a disabled person in the moment & put things right 🚨 Watch this space… just waiting for the final sign off… I refused an NDA - Obvs 💅🏻

The Irish Government’s international St Patrick’s Day video turns the focus onto Ukraine and its people. #StPatricksDay
I’m deeply concerned at P&O announcement - due to the importance to Scotland of the Cairnryan/Larne route obviously, but also the impact on 100s of workers. Fire & rehire is an appalling practice & offends the basic principle of fair work. @scotgov will be seeking urgent talks
The accessible shower at the pool is fixed now apparently- amazing what a letter of claim from a Solicitor can do to someone’s motivation to get something done 😆 5 weeks to fix a shower-they’d never have left the abled ones out of order that long 🙄 Anyway - swimming today 💪🏻🙌🏻
Imagine if someone fell. How do they raise the alarm? If you see this anywhere - please report it. If it’s in YOUR premises then let’s hope my tape measure doesn’t pay you a visit 💅🏻🙃
@flowergirl_lon No idea but this was our local Starbucks the other week. I sent them a message and they’ve fixed it now thankfully.
"Accessibility is NOT a feature". @bolonio with one of my favorite quotes of #axecon! #A11y #accessibility
Devastating as it has been, the pandemic has been an agent of change in terms of facilitating conversations between large groups of geographically disparate individuals. @CharterNin is seeking members to allow people w/ disabilities or support needs to have their voices heard.
The #NIN is a group of people with disabilities or support needs. It helps everyone have their voice heard. This is how it makes Charlotte feel. Become a member here: arcscotland.org.uk #JoinNIN #HaveYourVoiceHeard
