How do you get support in a workplace? Or at places you visit as part of your work? As in someone to assist to go to toilet? As in someone to assist to have a meal or a drink? As in someone to move your wheelchair from A to B?

Most of society are being encouraged to hate those who are unwell whether they are or aren't disabled. Being unwell isn't a reason to hate someone. It is a time to care.

Beginning of a new era. I can feel in my core changes are afoot. Uncertainty lies ahead and less communication about to be.
Expect to see me post more frequently across social media platforms as I adjust and need somewhere to be.

Every child should be valued equally from the moment they are born.
Yet, when a child is born with medical needs or a disability, society too often sees them as a burden.
Tragically, the evidence we see throughout their lives only reinforces this painful truth.

Between 2011 and 2023, 816 care homes in England were forcibly closed by the regulator for poor standards and harms to residents.
804 were owned by for-profit entities. 30% -40% of fees vanish in profits, leaving less for services.
Profits and care don't mix.

Disabled people aren’t getting a free ride
Being chronically ill is not a vacation
It’s an unrelenting 24/7 fight to get your basic needs met. You’re forced into legislated poverty & expected to grovel for what little help the system will give
There’s nothing easy about it & we need more support

I have come to the conclusion "What ever will be will be"
The only thing I can control is the thoughts I choose to dwell on. Even thoughts come and go through my mind. I have no direct control over central government, local government or nhs.

If a disabled person asks for help, don’t tell them to “try harder”.
Asking for help is one of the most difficult things for us, and I assure you we tried absolutely everything before we did it.
Ableism makes you think we can “fix ourselves”. It’s not true. You can’t try harder out of disability

I think I am different from many because I want the opportunity of employment. Currently I cannot as I am on legacy benefits. I am impatiently waiting to migrate benefits. All the current work schemes only help those outta work for max of 12 months. #WelfareNotWarfare
