Will be at @NaidexShow this year both days networking as we are still in the starting up stage. But will be great if anyone wants to follow us and to meet others.

Why do disabled households use so much energy? Why are disabled households dependent on so much energy? 👇 Energy for disabled adults & children is a lifesaver not a luxury. Our equipment for survival depends on power.

It is positive to start to see some access improvements to @MKHospital, with the ramp to the main entrance now being made more wheelchair friendly by removing the camber. I found this so much easy to navigate. Hope for more improved access in future
Have a project in the works. And would like to know of the all local charities, community organisations, groups and services for disabled people. Please message or comment of any that you know

1st batch of 1000 red cord cards arrived. Now to just get them into disabled toilets and continue to raise awareness. Quite a few already set aside to go into the hospital

The new social care proposals are unfair & will leave disabled people facing catastrophic care costs. We can’t have working age, already poverty stricken disabled people in more debt. Please click on the link and write to your MP, PLEASE PLEASE RT & SIGN actionnetwork.org/letters/sc…

If you see a red cord in a disabled toilet. Please do not tie them or hang them out of the way. This is preventing a disabled person calling for help. This was in a local doctors surgery after a card has been placed #RedCordChallenge #RedCord #HangFree

A small win for local accessibility. After much prompting to the company that own and run the carpark and many correspondence. The disabled parking bays have finally been repainted at netherfield local shops. This makes them safer to park in for disabled, and more noticeable
