My motion for online voting being added to the alternate voting methods for the 2026 election passed! Thanks so much for the robust conversation fellow council members & delegates. I appreciate all of your viewpoints. This is an accessibility win. Special thanks to @Squarest_Root

To those who are still wearing face masks in public: thank you.

Donation request:

We're in urgent need of a shower transfer bench with an arm, similar to the one pictured below. Padded seats would be preferable to hard plastic.

We're still seeking elbow crutches, as well as a manual wheelchair with a higher weight capacity/"bariatric" wheelchair. Please spread the word, and reach out to us if you can help!

Seeking a pair of elbow crutches!

A community member has reached out looking for a standard-sized pair of elbow crutches (aka forearm crutches, arm crutches, or lofstrand crutches). Please reach out if you have a pair to donate!

@OI_Mike13 @DEEPguelph Always so grateful for you!

[Guelph Access Library @GuelphAccess]

The Guelph Access Library is urgently seeking a donation of a manual wheelchair with a higher weight capacity! We only have one manual chair at the moment, and it has an unreasonably low weight capacity, making it inaccessible for many potential users. #Guelph @DEEPguelph

[Guelph Access Library @GuelphAccess]

We have a community member currently in need, so let's get them a wheelchair ASAP!

We are also still seeking space—we're currently limited in our capacity to operate due to space constraints. If you have a lead on a location to host us, please reach out! #Guelph @DEEPguelph

Weekly reminder: If your event doesn't have a virtual option, it's not inclusive or accessible. Thank you for coming to my Twitter talk on #ableism

[Guelph Access Library @GuelphAccess]

Because of the Guelph Access Library, someone got a chance to see a loved one in hospice one last time. If we can find a space and fully launch, we can make more moments like this happen. Please help us find a location! #Guelph @DEEPguelph

[kara @krazyakira]

Ty for the loan of a wheelchair for a few days for Terry to visit hospice. ❤️🙏

4th review of the AODA by Rich Donovan: “The current experience for many people with disabilities in Ontario is poor. This stems from design flaws in services, products, technology, buildings, infrastructure, careers, processes, and human imagination.” https://t.co/4KOT8ErnQb

Let's make this happen, Guelph!

[Guelph Access Library @GuelphAccess]

Guelph is filled with passionate, caring, generous people & I know that we can get a location if the right person hears about us! Please help us find space, #Guelph!

The Guelph Access Library is desperately seeking a location to host us! We're otherwise pretty much ready to launch, but the issue of space is being a major barrier. (1/4)
