'It's my information. I want to read that myself.'

We're still waiting for NHS England to get the updated Accessible Information Standard in shape and into practice. Get this to the top of the new Health Secretary’s to-do list: rnib.in/MyInfoMyWayToD…

Wooop it’s Day!

10 Years! What a brilliant decade it’s been too.

As GB athlete Stonewall & Team Rainbow Laces gave me hope, inspiration, & the courage to keep going ❤️

I also *love* the fact that GB Snowsport is a partner to this campaign.

Tough tech nightmares over the last 24 hours

Incredibly grateful to British Airways (shout out to the social media team!) for stepping in & sorting out speedily & efficiently

Great reminder
of why I’ve stayed loyal to BA over the years - thanks again!

.Guy's and St Thomas' receiving countless emails about MyChart, it doesn’t seem to get on with my access tech & there’s no accessibility statement

Can you confirm the accessibility standard please?

I totally struggle with the ‘positive mindset can overcome any disability’ narrative

It’s BS. No matter how positive I am, I’m still blind.

There are things I literally cannot do.

Don’t set expectations for disabled people that abled people can’t attain either

Rant over!
