My opinion piece about the failure to include a #ChangingPlaces toilet in the £2.9m Lockhouse Redevelopment project to ensure that it is fully inclusive for disabled and older people and carers.

This project is funded by Belfast City Council, The Executive Office, Communities NI & Department for Infrastructure

This is just disgusting😶 & why we need not just a disability strategy but our rights protected from this capacity argument via the #UNCRPD ! The capacity argument being used to deny People w Disabilities HR’s was the reason behind the creation of this law #FullyImplementTheUNCRPD

Today starts #DeafAwareness Week

I'm now starting think that the government believe if you work, you don't need PIP. But guess what, you're still disabled even if you work and you still face extra costs. They don't all magically disappear, in fact they can increase! 🤦🏽‍♀️

Today is Day 1 of “Move Every Day in May” for me as my body needed a rest yesterday. Started with a sunny lunchtime PT session. Hope everyone else is enjoying Day 2 MaeMurrayFoundation

Disability services are real funny.

It’s unfortunate that due to the success of “Me Before You” this perpetrated narratives the disabled community actively try to dismantle. Please consider seeking lived experience prior to your next book if dealing with disability Jojo Moyes Lorraine #Lorraine

The Un Committee's Criticism of the UK Government's Failures Over CRPD Raised in NI Assembly By Alliance Party's Danny Donnelly

I'm happy to provide a briefing on PIP for any struggling politicians and journalists so that when you discuss it you actually understand what it is and what it is used for. I won't even charge you for my time and expertise!

The UK government has made “no significant progress” in the more than seven years since it was found guilty of “grave and systematic” violations of the UN disability convention, it has been told by human rights experts.
