Today Naomi Ditchfield❤️ from the Merseyside Sight Loss Councils and I got the privilege of attending Museum of Liverpool for the launch of the #DisabiltyTrailLaunch thank you to iriska 🌈✨💖 (she/her/hers) who is the #CuratingForChange fellow at the museum who put the trail together. It was an excellent launch!
