Hi friends! I've stopped using this platform for the time being... felt too sad not seeing that little blue bird! I'd still love to connect with people, and I'll be mainly posting silly pictures on Instagram: @ AllieMaybe. With love and light ✨️

Fantastic example of some brilliant self-descriptions! Really hope this influences more organisations to create these.
For the first time in #LoveIsland history, the Islanders have recorded self-descriptions for blind and partially sighted fans! Find them on the @LoveIsland YouTube channel: https://t.co/GirUZIk4Ir Will you be watching tomorrow?

I say this all the time: progress over perfection! Great thread about advocating and educating over berating:
Please. Educate. Don't berate. Focus on progress over perfection. It's not all or nothing. If you go for all or nothing, change will never happen. Besides, there's no such thing as 100% accessible. 8/x #GAAD

A new home for the @Vagina_Museum (has been found)! But they really need to reach their funding goal! Can you help? Do you know of any foundations, institutions or companies who could offer support?

Making awards ceremonies accessible means that you expect disabled talent to be in the room, you expect them to be accepting & presenting awards, & you acknowledge them as an integral part of our industry. More of this, please! @BAFTA #BAFTATVAwards #DisabilityAccess

Really dangerous scenes today on the trains. Lack of awareness of the industrial action is so scary. I had no idea it was happening. @Se_Railway @TLRailUK
