#SEND parent & advocate supporting families, working with schools/disability forums/health boards etc to help improve practices around disabilities.
Joined November 2012
🧵if you ever wonder what drives me to so passionately support children & young people this is it in a nutshell👇🏼✌️B is 2wks old here, I was super young, single parenting by choice, wholly unequipped for parenthood never mind life threatening complex medical needs & disabilities.

Shall we start a list of what it’s not #SENDCommunity ? . I’ll start …picking on a child’s disability traits in a report card-insisting on eye contact-refusing fidgets-sanctions for disability traits-refusal to adjust uniform to accommodate needs . where is the individual? 🤷♀️.
If I asked you what you think makes you an inclusive setting what would you say? #edutwitter #teachertwitter #SEND #Autism #ActuallyAutistic #ADHD #inclusion #inclusionmatters #DisabilityTwitter #schools #Teacher #Student #headteacher #senco #education #EducationForAll

I wish we had more children and young people where this was their education journeys but sadly still in 2025 we are far from at this place & I fear it’s about to get worse!.
How many of my fellow #SEND families feel this is a true reflection of their children’s journeys in the education system? #Autism #ADHD #ActuallyAutistic #edutwitter #inclusion #2024 #DiversityKids
