"The difficulty is that medical model assumptions about us see disability as negative - what we can't do. Under that model we are condemned. The social model allows us to own ourselves and see disability as external to us" Maggie Cameron addressing delegates as part of #ilday2021

#ILDay2021 Maggie Cameron making clear sense of the use of #language “Disabled people” make us a collective group – let go of the first person language argument we are #disabledpeople , challenge the barriers not ourselves!!

"By working through a social model perspective we can do things in a more dignified, equal and fair way. Remember how valuable it is to listen to the people with the lived experience", Selina Bonnie @SexualCitizens #ilday2021

Minister @AnneRabbitte addressing the barriers disabled people continue to face and her commitment to listening to the lived experience, as part of our webinar 'Everything You Wanted to Know About Disability but Were Afraid to Ask" #ilday2021.

"As disabled people we need to be seen as experts and DPOs as organisations of experts", @AmyHassett #ilday2021

"The history of the charity model and public perception of such, combined with a lack of access to real resources are acting as a major barrier to the growth of DPOs in this country", @AmyHassett #ILday2021

"Disabled people exist in all areas of society - we are mothers, fathers, activists, workers. In reality everything needs to be accessible. We are more than JUST disabled people", Selina Bonnie @SexualCitizens #ilday2021
