CNBC≠finance. It means #ChildlessNotByChoice. In England & Wales 18% of women born in 1975 were childless by 45. Half of those born in 1990 were childless by 30. Men too: @RobinHadley1 work is vital here. This week, our voices rise: https://t.co/7it7lfmqdB #WorldChildlessWeek

Embossed #TactileGraphics from the early 1900s by French educator Martin Kunz turned nature into something #Blind students could feel. He hand-carved molds and pressed paper to create raised illustrations with braille descriptions. Our Perkins Archives hold dozens!

What if we reframed #FAILURE as:
Facing
Adversity;
Inspiring
Learning;
Understanding
Resilience; &
Embracing growth?

Thrilled to join @KingsCollegeLon @KclCRSD! Here,I'm bringing my passion for vision impairment research with a focus on understanding/creating inclusive career pathways for researchers.Barriers faced by researchers with disabilities don't vanish overnight but we can make progress

[Dr Kathleen Vancleef @katvancleef]

Ever heard of Anton's syndrome? It's a rare but strange condition. 👨‍🎓

After an injury to the back of the brain, a person can become blind but they are totally unaware that they can't see. Their brain does not realise that they can no longer see. 🧑‍🦯

[Perkins School for the Blind @PerkinsVision]

It's #LowVisionAwarenessMonth and being #Blind doesn't mean you see nothing at all. At Perkins, we give kids with disabilities the confidence and knowledge to access their world in their own way. Help us continue this work with a gift today: https://t.co/RCQnXBb9qh #SuperBowlLIX
