We've joined over 80 other charities to urge the UK Government to consider the effect of the cost of living crisis on disabled people. We've written a joint letter to the Chancellor so please share your own experiences with your MPs here: https://t.co/3hfiO4Aljh #SupportCantWait

Feel The Beat R&D We love getting our audiences (and our audio describer in fact) to feel and dance with us. What's the point if we don't all dance? is what I say 😉🪩 We partnered with @kentblind who gave us excellent feedback and ideas. 📸 @stephendalyphotography

Tomorrow we will be joined by Kent Association for the Blind. They are visiting to promote the importance of looking after our eyes and getting them checked regularly. Why not ask your child what they have learnt when they return home? #highhaldencep
