We recently got Disney+ to help us through quarantine. Let's be honest, nothing is quite as reassuringly comforting as Disney and right now we need that in spades. What follows is a thread about my take on the films we have watched, some new to me and some very familiar...
Brilliant to hear a promo for the Powerchair World Cup on @BBC6Music this morning! It is an incredible sport. I've been lucky enough to see some of the England team play before. Find out more here: apfconfederation.org/event/2… and watch the games on the @OfficialFIPFA YouTube channel

We stopped off at Blickling Hall at the end of our holiday and was delighted to learn they had a #ChangingPlacesToilet. I always get a particular thrill from seeing these vital facilities at @nationaltrust properties knowing the opportunities they open up for so many families 💙

This is SUCH a huge win for the SMA community who have been fighting for access to newborn screening for so long. It will give families access to treatments and support in a way that will transform lives. Instead of seeing irreversible loss, they will see milestones ♥️
We're expanding testing for Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA) across England.
From October, SMA checks will start being added to the heel-prick test for newborns.
This is part of an evaluation gathering evidence for a permanent national screening programme.

Impromptu stop at Clacket Lane services calls for a #ChangingPlacesToilet selfie! It's been a while and I had initial embarrassment BUT am reminded there is nothing embarrassing about celebrating venues that understand the importance of dignity and accessibility 💙

Incredible news! Well done to Scotland for being the trailblazer here. Hopefully others will follow. Congratulations to all those who have campaigned so tirelessly to make this change possible 💙

Newborn screening is long overdue for SMA, particularly given the emergence and availability of life changing treatments over the last 7+ years. Hoping this marks a growing focus on rare conditions. petition.parliament.uk/petit…

Always a delight stumbling across a #ChangingPlacesToilet when out and about but even better when it's in my local area. I think Walthamstow now has three CPs although only this one is registered with @ChangingPlaceUK currently. @wfcouncil something to action?

We had a fabulous afternoon at Thetford Forest yesterday searching for the Gruffalo, picking up acorns and exploring their *many* playgrounds. I was particularly delighted to find they had a @ChangingPlaceUK toilet available too so more families can enjoy this wonderful spot 💙

Today is #ChangingPlaces toilet awareness day! It is such an important and positive campaign that helps transform lives. I always love spotting CP toilets when out with friends and family or getting photos sent to me by people that get it. Keep up the great work all! #CPAD2025
It makes my heart SO happy to know that one of my favourite spots from home is now accessible to more people thanks to this #ChangingPlacesToilet at the beautiful Rhossili Bay. This is a special one for me 💙
Visited the stunning @sohotheatre in #Walthamstow last night. I was delighted to see they have a #ChangingPlacesToilet and that staff knew all about it and were proud of it. Thrilled to see more inclusive venues in my area- now we just need them registered with @ChangingPlaceUK

I am SO excited that the @ChangingPlaceUK map now has journey planning functionality AND that there are so many service stations that provide #ChangingPlaces toilets. It is all thanks to tireless campaigning and enabled by @transportgovuk funding. Things have come a long way 💙💙
Thanks to additional funding from @transportgovuk, we are delighted to launch today our new Journey Planner with increased functionality for planning, saving and downloading your travel routes.

A birthday trip to @ZSLWhipsnadeZoo called for a @ChangingPlaceUK selfie with my boy. I felt a little weepy hearing him shout out "Changing Places!" for the first time 🥹 Great signage to help people find the toilet too 💙👍

Finally got round to watching #WillAndHarper and absolutely loved it. Amazing to be a witness to these important and open conversations between two people as they rediscover the depth and beauty of their friendship and love for one another ❤️ youtu.be/PRZ1ELeGepo?si=xzCA…

I will never get tired of my nearest and dearest sending me photos of #ChangingPlacesToilets when they see them 💙 This one was snapped by my bestie @PaultonsPark - thanks for being incLOOsive for all your visitors!

There is often a focus on introversion being about social awkwardness/anxiety but it is far more nuanced than that. We need to recognise and celebrate the value of both extroverts *and* introverts in our society apolitical.co/solution-artic…

Double thumbs up for @SwanWalkShop for having this #ChangingPlaces toilet available for visitors! Love the extra large signage and great to see it was being cleaned when we popped by (although the lady was a little bemused at my excitement!)

Is it even a holiday if we don't visit somewhere with a @ChangingPlaceUK toilet?! We were delighted to see this one @_africaalive. A reminder that venues with ample outdoor space can install modular CP toilets and open their venue up to thousands of new visitors 💙
