When a trustee/director tries to take business from the charity to start their own business is a criminal offence! Appalled to see @RevoLOOtionUK have taken #Mobiloo’s Twitter account & phone number. Mobiloo is still active so hand this back to it’s rightful owner!
UPDATE: A word from the Charity’s Board of Trustees. Thread 1/3 The Vehicles for Change Board of Trustees would like to announce that as of today, 10th March 2023, the trading name for our amazing charity is now ‘RevoLOOtion’.

Good to speak with parents this morning who are protesting outside @OxfordshireCC about the failings of the councils SEND department. A system that should be supporting parents is instead tangling parents up in legal fees and processes. We must do more and we must do better.

YESSSSS!!! FINALLY 😁👍
This is positive news for disabled people wanting to attend gigs! However, there are still accessibility barriers to overcome, particularly in relation to the availability of #ChangingPlaces toilets at gig venues bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment…

Disappointed to see that a room to pray takes priority over a #ChangingPlaces (Bench and Hoist) toilet facility at @bicestervillage I’m not saying they shouldn’t have this but #BicesterVillage you are excluding disabled people by not being fully accessible when you have the space

Using inaccessible toilets is dangerous, unhygienic and undignified for both the individual and their carer(s). This s why more #ChangingPlaces toilets are needed. changing-places.org/the_camp…

Please share with parent carers in Oxfordshire! Thank you xx
OCC is being re-inspected by Ofsted in September. We’re keen to meet with parents in Oxfordshire to understand more about your experiences of local Schools, EHCP’s, CAHMS, diagnosis process, support & anything else that concerns you. Please email to confirm attendance! Thank you
@ClivedenNT thank you for hiring @MobilooUK today 😍👍 By providing a #BenchAndHoist #ChangingPlaces toilet you made @OutdoorPlaysUK #GangstaGranny show #accessible to our party of 12! We hope to visit you again soon 😀 If Tam & Otis cannot "go", none of us can go!

Thank you @MobilooUK family for being kind & helpful during our time at @TruckFestival it was great to have a clean facility on site! With improved signage, even more people will use this if they know it’s there next yr! Thanks Truck Fest for booking this. See you next year!

Dear @BorisJohnson the costs of raising a child with a #disability (Thanks to the Dickensian work of the @DWP ) means families like ours will lose £1750 a yr under the new benefit system. To raise our children to adulthood costs £215,553 more than other families. I’m waiting...

This is one of the most shocking and incomprehensible statistics! EVERY hospital should have a #ChangingPlaces toilet - many of them should have multiple facilities! This is unacceptable and so wrong! 🤬🤬🤬 #ChangingPlaces #CPAD2019
Many people who need #ChangingPlaces will visit hospital more regularly yet less than 30% of hospitals in the UK provide these vital facilities. We hope @DHSCgovuk funding will change this changing-places.org/news/nhs… #CPAD2019
