What irresponsible bullshit is this? Shame on the #bbc for encouraging irresponsible pet owners! #disgusted playing into the hands of #puppyfarms #12PuppiesAndUs @BBCTwo

So few visitors realise the kind of breadth of access they can have... this doesn’t help us to #decolonise #museums2020

How do we change the culture within to democratise the collections? #museums2020

‘Redesign how you’re designing your budgets!’ - James Brandon #Museums2020 THIS is key to equality of visitor experience. Budget wrangling is a poor excuse for not ensuring access for everyone.

[Fi MacLeod @MacPublisher]

Who ensures visitor experience is considered throughout the whole planning an exhibition in other organisations? In mine it’s the designers, but only from a physical access point of view. #museums2020 #disabledaccess

@museumDCN @EMBED_Org @UEA_Health Thanks for the links. Will explore further! 🙌🏻

Is #covid19 the great leveller of museum visitor experience - making everybody vulnerable? #museums2020

[Fi MacLeod @MacPublisher]

@annafineman I 100% believe you. It’s horrifying what I’m hearing from Rebecca Atkinson.

Wow. I didn’t know that 1 in 5 people are disabled. #lifelonglearning #museums2020 #visitorexperience

@LauraJBeare @MuseumsAssoc I’m sporting a hot water bottle! 😎

COVID has exposed where it is that trustees can be/are effective in supporting their museums. #museums2020

#museums2020 ‘...museums recognise their own weaknesses laid bare by #covid19’ How do we plan for 2021 with so much uncertainty remaining?

@GlasgowCC hi, your MyGlasgow app isn’t letting me report missed recycling - it’s been over 6 weeks! The blue bins are reaching overflow. What next? #Recycling #techfail #glasgow #coronalife

@DiversityScot To me, #EachforEqual means a level playing field for all. As it should be! ☺️

[Fi MacLeod @MacPublisher]

@ScotRail It only brought up 'popular' destinations. The machine on the right on platform one is out of service.

[Fi MacLeod @MacPublisher]

@ScotRail #FYI one of your two machines at CMY is broken. #fixit

[Fi MacLeod @MacPublisher]

@ScotRail what's the point in not having a-z destination finder on your tix machines? Couldn't buy a ticket to where I wanted to go😡

@OpenreachGB as if by #magic, your #engineer appeared at 8am! Which was good, cos he was meant to appear on thursday morning and didn't! 😡
