We’re absolutely thrilled to see Deaf signers making waves writing scripts at the @BBC and shining as the lead character on #WaterlooRoad 🎉 We celebrate the incredible Deaf writer @CharlieSw_Photo and Deaf actor Danny Murphy. Let’s amplify their message together! 🌟
When accessibility isn't prioritised, this can be the reality of being deaf at school 💔 #WaterlooRoad #Drama #DeafAwareness #DeafEducation #DeafCommunity #SignLanguage #Learning #HearingImpaired #BSL Details of support for some of the issues raised in this video are available

I’d like to support #EqualPlay and suggest that PE teachers take a look at this practical resource that may help them to be more inclusive in their lessons @ParalympicsGB
Hannah Cockroft says it’s time for #EqualPlay Our athletes have been making the equals sign with their arms in Paris to urge the UK Government to act now to ensure that by LA 2028, no disabled child is left on the sidelines of school sport or PE. #ParalympicsGB 🟰 📹 @Channel4

Might I suggest that PE teachers who want to improve how they can include disabled youngsters in practical sessions to look through this quick, easy and effective guide #equalplay
Only 1 in 4 disabled children say they take part in regular school sport and PE. We’re calling on The UK Government to act now to ensure that by LA 2028 no child is left on the sidelines in the proud birthplace of the Paralympic movement. #ParalympicsGB 🟰🇬🇧 #EqualPlay

I think this would be a great platform for @NYDeafSwimmer . @TheLastLeg would you please consider this? It would help Deaflympians with their plight for equal funding.
@C4Paralympics @RoseAylingEllis Great coverage, and good to see @RoseAylingEllis representing the deaf community so well. I'm sure @NYDeafSwimmer would love the chance to speak on behalf of Deaf Athletes on C4 at some point. An ideal guest for @TheLastLeg .

Great to share our (@GyozoMolnar, David Tod) new paper in @PEHjournal. In this work we use an existential perspective to interpret men’s stories of long-term androgenic-anabolic steroid use. https://t.co/2MZViympHy Presentations @QRSE2022 and @QRSE2024 linked to this paper.
