Celebrating #PwD shouldnt just be on #IDPWD, so I am doing so all week. 1st up: Akii Ngo, fellow recipient of one of a @DisabilityLead award! I met Akii in 2019 & have been in awe at their work since - from keynote speaking to runway appearances. See https://t.co/82gURTi7Mo

[Heidi La Paglia Reid @heidilapaglia]

While #IDPWD is usually a day I celebrate *other* disabled leaders, this #IDPWD I am so grateful to have been chosen as a recipient in the 2023 #NationalAwardsForDisabilityLeadership. Thank you so much to @DisabilityLead and all others that have showed me support.

[Sarah Joyce @RecoverySarahs]

[Victorian Disability Worker Commission @VDWCommission]

We were fortunate to have @HChristinaR, CEO of the @DisabilityLead present to VDWC staff & the VPS Enablers Network yesterday.

We’re doing a lot of great things here at VDWC, & it’s always helpful to have presentations like these to spark conversation about what more we can do.

[Victorian Disability Worker Commission @VDWCommission]

Representatives from VDWC were proud to attend the @DisabilityLead Oration.

Natalie Wade, respected disability rights lawyer and advocate, was the Orator and spoke about ending segregation in housing and ensuring new builds are both accessible and affordable.

Today Natalie Wade, one of Australia's foremost #Disability rights experts, will give the @DisabilityLead Oration 2023. The annual oration plays a key role in setting the national agenda and placing disability leadership at the centre of that agenda.

🎉 Exciting Update! 🎉

I've just secured a premium membership with the @DisabilityLead ! All thanks to the generous support of the @AustraliaAwards – South Asia & Mongolia Professional Development Activity Grant. 🌟

This membership isn’t just a title - it's a gateway to a treasure trove of resources, tools, and connections that will empower me to champion inclusivity and diversity in the Maldives and globally.

I'm passionate about creating lasting change for the disability community, and with this support, the possibilities are endless. Here’s to making waves, breaking barriers, and shaping an inclusive world. Let's do this! 🌍💪

Do you have a mental health condition? Got time for a short survey? One of our clients is doing research as part of their project with @DisabilityLead and is gathering data on accessibility for people with mental health conditions. https://t.co/QnccUMvDWO
