Managed to get through to the Wembley access line really quickly but have been on hold for nearly two hours If they're not accepting other calls am I wasting my time?

A Paralympic commentator just said the following: "You stop seeing the wheelchair pretty quickly when you watch this sport." Do. Not. Say. This. It's ableist AF.

Did you know that calling them the Paralympics has nothing to do with disability. “Para” = Greek for beside, next to, parallel. The Paralympics run parallel to the Olympics.

Well done DPAC for delivering 650 copies of Disability News Service's vital new book to parliament Will MPs actually care enough about disabled people to read them? I won't hold my breath

I graduated from @UCL today with MA PPE of Health. They hadn't arranged safe wheelchair access to the stage @SouthbankCentre. They knew I'm a wheelchair user. Unlike other graduands I was awarded my degree on the floor. This discrimination is emblematic of my experience there.
